🚀 Inaugural Meeting!
We’ll hold our first official meeting on 1 December. Great to finally be bringing everyone together — members, new faces, and anyone curious about joining — and to start building some real momentum.

That’s a wrap on heat acclimation for Ken’s world human-powered speed record attempt in Nevada. 2 heat tolerance tests, 9 heat acclimation rides, & positive physiological and perceptual changes seen.

Amazing fact from The Physiological Society Network Physiology webinar. If you measure 100 physiological parameters at 100 Hz for 1 day in 1 person, you’ll collect more data than there are base pairs in the human genome-and there are ~4 billion base pairs. 🤯

For the first time, I asked ChatGPT to generate an image of me (for teaching purposes). And this is the result. I’m both impressed with some of the accuracies and also slightly insulted 😂 Although I did specifically ask it to make me look worried

Pleased to see this paper accepted for publication today. Frame Running is a fantastic activity that gives so much to people with a variety of walking impairments-great to see an increasing body of research into it. #framerunning #cerebralpalsy #researchimpact

There are very few papers that I’m a little bit jealous I wasn’t involved with, but this is one of them! Really looking forward to reading it. Better clarity/consistency on the unnecessarily large number of intensity descriptors is needed. #exercisescience #exerciseintensity

Word cloud based on my Google Scholar profile. Interesting! Would also say that it doesn’t exactly reflect my current research directions. The wonderful inertia of the scientific publication process…!

Big 2024 announcement! The “Guide to Effect Sizes and Confidence Intervals” had a pretty substantial update and is slowly becoming the most comprehensive resource on effect sizes and confidence intervals. Here is a thread of some of the new additions 1/5 t.co/ByeSMQNJdp

Some good news on a Friday. Glad this is being published, as it makes some important points about the future of mental fatigue research. Thanks to Nicholas Lam for leading on it so well.
