Research Interests
- The exploration of the potential mechanisms for increased reactive species production during and after exercise.
- The role of blood as governing factor of both oxidative stress and maintenance of oxidant-antioxidant homeostasis.
- The potential influence of reactive species and redox agents (e.g., "antioxidants") on exercise-induced adaptations and health effect
