📰 New article states people with schizophrenia weren’t inherently more vulnerable to heat during BC’s 2021 heat dome — they were made vulnerable by systemic barriers.
“...by the obstacles that shape their lives.”

People with schizophrenia were hit hard by B.C.’s deadly 2021 heat dome
People with schizophrenia made up almost 16 per cent of deaths in B.C.’s 2021 heat dome. Their experiences show why cooling must be treated as a right, not a privilege.

Climate change made deadly wildfires in Turkey, Greece and Cyprus more fierce, study finds
A new study says climate change that has driven scorching temperatures and dwindling rainfall made massive wildfires in Turkey, Greece and Cyprus this summer burn much more fiercely.

🔥 Recovery or added stress? A new study shows that post-exercise infrared sauna initially ramps up cortisol and HR in female athletes—but after 6 weeks of consistent use, the body adapts. 🧠💥

Salivary cortisol response to post-exercise infrared sauna declines over time
Heat exposure after exercise may enhance recovery of physical performance but can also impose additional physiological stress on athletes. This study investigated the effects of post-exercise infra...

In 1977, Profs. Mandell (R), Douglas (CTR) & Bennett (L) started working on the Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases (PPID), which became the infectious diseases bible. Andrej Romanovsky, Temperature EIC, co-contributed a chapter on fever for the just released 10th edition of PPID.

Cities are heating up. Better infrastructure can cool them down
Urban infrastructure can be one of the most powerful tools to keep people cool, without relying on energy-hungry air conditioning. The key is focusing on "surface infrastructure" — the places where th...

🚴♂️💧 Sweating models often miss the mark in heat! A new study tested popular thermoregulatory models against real-world data from 780 trials. 📖 Result? Most underestimate sweat loss especially during intense exercise. Time to rethink how we model sweat.
