Research Interests
In the Integrative Human Physiology Laboratory, we are interested in integrative cardiovascular control in humans focused on:
- the interaction between sympathetic neural vasoconstrictor and local metabolic factors in the regulation of blood flow and vascular tone at rest and during stress (e.g. hypoxia, exercise),
- potential interventions aimed at improving vascular functioning
Additional interest in:
- exercise rehabilitation program effects in clinical populations (e.g. post-cardiac event, cancer survivors)
Current funded projects relate to the impact of hypoxia on cerebral blood flow and the interaction with motor control.
