Notice biographique (en anglais seulement)
Stephen is a member of the Integrative Cardiopulmonary Physiology Laboratory at the University of British Columbia – Okanagan Campus. He previously completed his Ph.D. in Medical Science and M.Sc. in Exercise Science at the University of Toronto and Mount Sinai Hospital.
Stephen’s integrative human cardiovascular physiology research is focused on interactions between the heart and the lungs, the cardiovascular adaptation to exercise, and sex-related differences in cardiorespiratory physiology. His Ph.D. work included cardiac catheterization-based studies describing hemodynamic responses to exercise in healthy older adults. Current projects include the characterization of right ventricular systolic function in the setting of heart failure and pulmonary hypertension, and cardiac effects of altered breathing mechanics in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
