Geoffrey Hartley

Dr. Geoffrey Hartley is an Associate Professor in the Schulich School of Education at Nipissing University, specializing in Physical and Health Education. He holds a BKIH from Acadia University, an MSc and PhD from Brock University.

His research focuses on environmental physiology, particularly mechanisms of cerebral blood flow regulation, temperature regulation, and exercise performance in extreme environments. Key interests include hyperthermia, hypoxia, and neuromuscular function under stress.

Recent work explores cold strain measurement, endurance capacity in cold air, and cognitive effects of thermal stress. His publications analyze interactions between environmental stressors (heat/cold/hypoxia) and physiological responses like thermoregulation, neuromuscular fatigue, and cerebral blood flow dynamics.

No scientific awards listed. His academic roles include full-time faculty and participation in graduate programs.
