About

Research Fellow in Thermal Physiology primarily working on a UKRI-funded NERC project to explore the effects of simulated heatwave conditions on the health of older adults and patient populations (e.g., people with multiple sclerosis). 

Also, leading the THERMOCARE project which aims to better understand how heat exposure in care homes impacts resident health and staff well-being, as well as indentify what barriers exist to effective thermal management.
