Overview

Jonathan has a BSc (Hons) in Biological Sciences (Physiology), and a PhD in Cardiovascular Physiology.  He teaches human, exercise and environmental physiology on sport and exercise science undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes. Jonathan's research focuses primarily on understanding how blood pressure is regulated, and the importance this has for human circulatory control during exercise and other physiological stressors, such as high-altitude hypoxia.  

    

Research

Neural control and autonomic regulation of the heart and blood vessels. Having spent many years studying reflexes from vagal afferent nerve endings in the heart and pulmonary arteries, Jonathan is particularly interested in how these baroreceptors regulate sympathetic nervous system activity in health and disease.
