Extreme Environments Lab UoP
@ExtEnvLab_UoP
Researching the physiological & psychological responses to adverse environments & the selection, preparation & protection of those who enter such environments.
Enjoyed filming in Cornwall with @ProfMikeTipton, @adeymayhew_ from @surflifesaving & @Sinstance for a @portsmouthuni doc about the @ExtEnvLab_UoP research that underpinned our @RNLI #FloatToLive campaign, plus a bonus @BBCBreakfast! Collaborative & applied lifesaving research👌🏻
From the lab to life saving, laboratory underpinned 'float first' research used as part of 999 messaging. youtube.com/watch?v=-AvSMg… #Floatfirst #RNLI
Very powerful to hear the float message helping to save lives. Well done @HMCoastguard well done @RNLI and well done @ExtEnvLab_UoP. Let's teach this in schools.
Sound on 🔊 to hear Jenny’s real 999 call to the Coastguard when her friend was swept out to sea 'It could easily happen to you': 🌊 Take a phone & check weather/tides 🌊 Tell someone your plans 🌊 #FloatToLive Emergency? Call #999Coastguard #BeCoastSafe #RespectTheWater @rnli

Great video demonstrating the real life impact of our research, such an important message vimeo.com/646344970 #floattolive #respectthewater
🎙️Now online🎙️ Climate change and the #Tokyo2020 #Olympics with @ProfMikeTipton & @PTrascasaCastro What are the effects of heat and humidity on sport performance? How can athletes adapt? Will the Tokyo Olympics be the hottest on record? Full episode: anchor.fm/the-climate-pr…
Great to see the 'Seaside Safety Song' featuring on kids TV. Such an important message youtube.com/watch?v=Tkwa12…
A chance to ask @ProfMikeTipton questions about the physiological impact of extreme environments. @ThePhySoc #AskMeAnything Ask your questions here: buff.ly/3vf2Kw9
Join me on 17 June, 13:00-14:00 BST for @ThePhySoc’s first #AskMeAnything Member Community discussion! I’ll be answering Qs on the physiological impact of extreme environments and on getting published in @ExpPhysiol! 🔗@Physoc members login: bit.ly/351qRnh
Many congratulations @ProfMikeTipton very well deserved Lifetime Achievement Award, a fantastic honour.
Honoured and delighted to receive a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from The Higgins & Langley Memorial Awards (Flood & Swiftwater rescue) in the USA on Sunday. Dedicated to my family, colleagues, and those who put themselves at risk to save others. From lab to lifesaving.
Another long weekend of collecting cognitive performance/fatigue/sleep data at the Suffolk Back Yard Ultra. Good job team @BenchetritSandy @juanibada @JoeCostelloPhD #ultrarunning #sleepdeprivation

Great opportunity with @dstlmod deadline of 6th June
We are recruiting a senior physiologist! Lots of exciting projects coming up for you to get involved in. civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/csr/index.cgi?…
Good work @H_Massey1979 & @ProfMikeTipton 👍
Thank you @Swim_England for hosting @ProfMikeTipton and me this evening for our cold water swimming presentation 🏊🏊♂️ @ExtEnvLab_UoP @UoPSportScience
A fascinating listen from our own @ProfMikeTipton talking all things #survival and the physiology of extreme #cold You can listen to the interview on BBC Sounds here: bbc.in/3uFlAwf
Great to see @BenchetritSandy and @juanibada out in the field collecting data this weekend
A hard weekend of field research has come to an end. Thank you to my runners and congratulations on such an achievement! Thank you @HardmoorsUltras for supporting this @ExtEnvLab_UoP research #hardmoors160 @juanibada
Excellent to see yet another of our PGR's getting ready to resume data collection. @Thomas_J_James putting himself through the passive heating process in preparation for participants next week #type2diabetes #thermaltherapy #passiveheating

'Hit For Six' you can read the @BASIS_org report on the impact of climate change on cricket here: bit.ly/3tUS8lv Fantastic input from @ProfMikeTipton looking at the physiological responses and consequences of heat on performance in cricket. How hot is too hot?

40 degrees in the lab today as we conduct a post heat-acclimation stress test #heatacclimation #thermalphysiology



Great to see the resumption of further research in our labs. MPhil student @juanibada beginning to conduct some pilot testing continuing our research on the effect of physiological stressors on cognitive performance


Are you interested in the impact of a new heat acclimation programme on your exercise performance in hot, cool and low O2 conditions? We are looking for physically-active males (aged 18-40) to volunteer both now and in the autumn. Contact [email protected] for info.

Great news, congratulations to @freeflightphys and all involved
Congratulations @freeflightphys (Matt Wilkes) on the award of your PhD today. Excellent work on the physiology, ergonomics and cognitive psychology of high altitude paragliding. Excellent work, fascinating area.
