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
