What happens to your body at 10C (the average temperature that people will be living in if they can't afford to heat their homes)? The Physiological Society and Experimental Physiology’s Damian M. Bailey talks about the physiology of cold and how to use this knowledge to keep warm. bbc.co.uk/news/health-63…

We're deeply saddened to share the news that our founder Doddie Weir has died. Doddie was a force of nature, a great family man, tremendous rugby player & loved & respected by all who knew him. Our love & best wishes are with his family. Full statement: myname5doddie.co.uk/whats-on/artic…

With global warming increasing, we need much more consideration about event scheduling and heat mitigation [e.g. ice/water, ice-baths etc (which most events are, frankly, dreadful at providing)]. Lawsuits like this will only follow with poor event planning:runnersworld.com/news/a42126297…

🚨We are still recruiting women for the E2 study. Number of visits reduced and get access to your DXA scan with specific details on your body composition. Contact me on Twitter or [email protected] for further information 🚨please RT

excited to see this in print! sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Good to focus the #ClimateCrisis on pregnant women and their unborn children in #gambia Centre on Climate Change & Planetary Health, LSHTM MRC Unit The Gambia at LSHTM Wellcome Key take homes and implications from the study... A thread


A new Wellcome-funded study led by Dr Ana Bonell found that for pregnant women working in extremely hot temperatures, there was a 17% increase in strain on a foetus for every extra degree Celsius in extreme heat stress. From naomi grimley 👇 wellc.me/3iBdHr5

Had the opportunity to present some current work + ideas for future work 🤞 between the Fatigue & Exercise Lab, Environmental Extremes Lab, University of Brighton and colleagues at CISC BSMS. Great to work with really nice colleagues who are so passionate about the brain! Thank you.


Here at Environmental Extremes Lab we are ready to support #MDS2023 athletes ahead of next year's MARATHON DES SABLES race. Read reflections from last year's heat acclimation support programme to improve safety, chances of success and enjoyment! blogs.brighton.ac.uk/extremeslab/20…



How time flies, 10 years ago today we (Environmental Extremes Lab @alanrichardson_ Ben Duncan Tess Flood Rebecca Relf Emily Watkins et al) arrived back from a 3 week research expedition in Peru. Good to see the blog is still live, along with some brilliant photos/videos! uobperu2013.blogspot.com/2013/04/

A £325,000 award from Wolfson Foundation, will help researchers and students Sport and health sciences to better understand how – and why – extreme temperatures impact different people. The funds will boost research work done at Environmental Extremes Lab Read more here...👇👇👇

The Environmental Extremes Lab here University of Brighton are delighted to be supported by Wolfson Foundation funding for a new dual temperature-hypoxic chamber and continue our work towards greater awareness of and mitigation against the challenges that environmental extremes bring.
