How much of an impact and influence does #heat #stress have on one’s #health, work productivity and even the #economy? Click below to read more about what Assoc Prof Jason Lee and his team behind Project HeatSafe found over a span of 3.5 years. medicine.nus.edu.sg/news/heat-stre…


Exposure to extreme heat was found to reduce sperm quality in temperate countries. In Project HeatSafe, we analysed the associations between extreme heat and sperm quality in Singapore (a tropical country). Here are our findings: @NUSMedicine @heathealth_info


Extreme heat can affect pregnancy. In Project HeatSafe, we studied the risk of preterm and small-for-gestational age births from over 30,000 births in Singapore, and conducted a survey on behavioural changes during pregnancy. Here are our findings: @NUSMedicine @heathealth_info

New article from @dukenus explores heat risk, vulnerability, and adaptation. “We are behaviourally heat acclimatised, not physiologically. That means we are not as acclimatised to the actual temperature as we think we are,” - @JasonKWLee @NUSingapore duke-nus.edu.sg/medicus/2023-i…
