current doctoral trainees

Kelli King, M.sC.

Kelli King is currently a Ph.D. student at the Human and Environmental Physiology Research Unit at the University of Ottawa. She earned her Master of Science degree from the University of New Mexico in Exercise Science where she studied the physiological and cellular responses to heat, cold, and hypoxic exposures. Her recent research interests focus on the metabolic contributions during thermal stressors and the impact of thermal stress on cellular function. Kelli’s doctoral thesis will examine the cellular mechanisms of autophagy and cold shock proteins in young and older adults in response to acute and chronic exposures to cold water immersion.

Emily Tetzlaff, M.H.K

Emily Tetzlaff is a Ph.D. student at the Human and Environmental Physiology Research Unit at the University of Ottawa. Emily completed the first year of her Ph.D. in Human Kinetics at Laurentian University, along with her Master of Human Kinetics degree and Honours Bachelor of Physical and Health Education specializing in Health Promotion. Emily also has a Certificate in Gerontology from Huntington University, and is a Registered Kinesiologist with the Ontario College of Kinesiology. Emily was awarded a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council Doctoral Scholarship and Goodman School of Mines Scholarship for her current research project which focuses on mining-related occupational health and safety.

Caroline Li-maloney, M.Sc.

Caroline Li-Maloney is a first year Ph.D. student at the Human and Environmental Physiology Research Unit at the University of Ottawa. She earned her Master of Science degree from the University of Ottawa in Biology, specializing in evolutionary physiology. Her thesis addressed an understudied mechanism in thermoregulation. She is currently interested in investigating individual and population-level variation in heat stress responses, focusing in particular on women in different life-history stages.
