Research Interests
My research interests are centered around the study of the mechanistic basis of fatigue by integrating circulatory, respiratory, metabolic, and neuromuscular responses in exercising humans. During my doctoral training, I focused on parsing out the role of central motor command from reflex-mediated responses on exercise performance and autonomic adjustments. Currently, my research goal is to advance our understanding of neurally-mediated cardiovascular adjustments in health and disease, with a particular focus on the neural control of circulation in chronic pain patients.
