Dr. james JEREMY McCORMICK, PH.D.
Dr. James Jeremy McCormick is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow within the Human and Environmental Physiology Research Unit (HEPRU) at the University of Ottawa, Canada. Jeremy completed his graduate work in Exercise Physiology at the University of New Mexico Department of Health, Exercise, and Sports Science where he studied physiological responses to exercise and various dietary supplemental interventions during heat and hypoxic exposure. He also gained experience in techniques in molecular biology working with the University of New Mexico Department of Internal Medicine studying cellular stress responses in the elderly and people with chronic disease. Jeremy’s doctoral thesis examined the cellular mechanisms of autophagy and heat shock proteins in prediabetic individuals in response to exercise and simulated cellular starvation. His current research focus is the cellular stress response mechanisms to heat exposure in vulnerable populations.

DR. Kelli elizabeth King, PH.D.
Dr. Kelli E. King is currently a postdoctoral fellow within the Human and Environmental Physiology Research Unit (HEPRU) at the University of Ottawa. Kelli completed her PhD at the University of Ottawa where her thesis examined the interplay of autophagy with other mechanisms associated with cellular stress in young and older adults in response to acute and repeated exposures to cold-water immersions. Her recent research interests focus on the metabolic contributions during thermal stressors and the impact of heat and cold stress on cellular function.

DR. kate hutchins, PH.D.
Dr. Kate Hutchins is a postdoctoral fellow with HEPRU at the University of Ottawa. She completed her postgraduate studies at the Queensland University of Technology (Australia), where she led and contributed to a range of projects, including investigations into heat tolerance in protective clothing, menstrual phase and performance in the heat and cold-water immersion for treating heat stroke. Kate has a vested interest in protecting those most at risk and translating research into solutions to build climate resilient communities.
