Dr Ralph Gordon is a Lecturer in Skin Sensing Research in the School of Health Sciences, at the University of Southampton. After completing a BSc (Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK) and MSc (University of Roehampton, UK), Ralph obtained his PhD in thermal and neuromuscular physiology (University of Roehampton, UK).
Following his doctorate Ralph held academic lecturing positions at the University of Bedfordshire and Anglia Ruskin University. He then joined the Skin Sensing Research Group to undertake a postdoctoral research fellowship at the University of Southampton, in September 2023.
Ralph is an active researcher within the fields of thermal physiology, neuromuscular function and thermomechanical interactions at the skin interface. Ralph’s research aims to investigate complex physiological interactions within these fields on the human body, with application to healthy and clinical populations.
