Good discussion with @jacklang on the effects of altitude during the 2026 soccer #WorldCup and how to acclimatize for best results

Great initiative. It will certainly rise quickly and strongly!
This is great news @physoc @ExpPhysiol 👇

Very cool science! Well done guys!
How do mitochondria choose whether to use fats or carbohydrates for energy?
PhD student @FrangosSara & @HollowayMitoLab in @UofG_HHNS have uncovered how exercise-induced acidity might drive a switch from fats toward carbohydrates.

Amazing scientific day at @aqsapcongres provincial conference with graduate students. Congrats to @MChambionDiaz and Joanna Guézennec for winning best oral for PhD and MSc 🏆 🥇
Practical application of research!🧐

And another contribution to environmental physiology 🏔️ 🌎 🏃♀️
that can impact both training and rehab. Should gravity & hypoxia be combined for best results?! Congrats @MChambionDiaz for « running » this project @EducationQC @Athl_FQA @JSportsSci
Happy to put Quebec 🇨🇦 🍁 on the BFR world map again!

Very nice to see your students present their data in the largest meeting in the country 🇨🇦 @csep_scpe @jeremiarenaud
‼️ funding alert ‼️ Thank you to @EducationQC and @skidefondquebec for supporting our research again! This longitudinal project will examine physiological traits of young female XC skiers over a season, in collab with @feminaction
Great study design! Keep up the good work @ShahrzadSoleim4 @facmedUL
This work is in collaboration with my colleague @FrBillaut who is co-supervising @ShahrzadSoleim4

Love these graphs more and more. Group data vs individual responses. People are different & scientists must be cognizant of that to avoid erroneous conclusions
Finally out! Great ressource to have handy. Thx for the opportunity to share our work @dr_o_girard and @GregoireMillet1

A good refresher!
New paper out! ❄️ We review recovery strategies for elite winter athletes prepping for the 2026 Olympics. Sleep, nutrition, & physical methods matter! 🏋️♀️ Personalized plans are key. 🔑 Full paper: tinyurl.com/8363nfd3

How accurate and precise are handheld blood lactate analyzers?
We recently evaluated four commonly used devices.
The results may surprise you...
