056 - Dr. Kim Meidenbauer on Heat Stress & Decision-Making
On today's episode, I have the awesome opportunity to speak with Dr. Kim Meidenbauer, professor at Washington State University. We discuss her research on heat stress and how it affects decision-making and aggressive behavior, the physiology of what is happening inside the body during exposure to hot environments, as well as the research on how immersion in nature can heal. The parallels to the fire service are many and can change the way we approach our training and operations for service and readiness.
