Biography
Steve is a Clinical Exercise Physiologist and a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Heart, Exercise and Research Trials (HEART) Lab at St Vincent's Institute of Medical Research. Steve’s research is focused on using exercise testing and exercise training to improve functional and cardiovascular outcomes for individuals with or at risk for heart failure. Steve uses advanced exercise testing and imaging methods including cardiopulmonary exercise testing, exercise cardiac MRI and muscle MRI to understand how limitations in the heart, blood vessels and muscles contribute to symptoms and functional impairment in people with or at risk for heart failure, and how these effects can be prevented through personalized exercise interventions.
