Research Interest
During my PhD-thesis I’m investigating 1) the short-term change in airway patency following intermittent and continuous hyperpnea in healthy and mild asthmatics; 2) the functional effect of short-term respiratory warm-ups on the severity/attenuation of bronchial hyperresponsiveness induced by strenuous whole-body exercise in dry conditions and on endurance capacity; and 3) the effects of long-term respiratory exercises on parameters of physical fitness, pulmonary function, airway hyperreactivity and airway inflammation in mild asthmatics.
