EquatorGenomics

Built for Heat. Driven by Genetics.

Equator Genomics works at the intersection of sports genomics and environmental physiology, researching how individual variation shapes human performance in hot, humid conditions.

What we do

Genomics

Heat adaptation research

Research into the genetics of heat adaptation and how individual variation shapes performance in hot, humid conditions.

Measurement

Environmental monitoring

Wet bulb globe temperature measurement and heat-stress modelling, so training and scheduling decisions rest on actual conditions rather than air temperature alone.

Advisory

Preparation and planning

Heat acclimatisation planning, hydration and cooling strategy, and staff education for teams travelling into tropical environments.

Enquiries
