معرفی
Evan Matthews is an Associate Professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Montclair State University's College for Community Health. His research focuses on cardiovascular and exercise physiology, particularly the impact of physical activity and muscle contraction on blood pressure and vascular reactivity in populations such as healthy young adults, women, and those with a family history of hypertension. He uses advanced techniques like ultrasound and near-infrared spectroscopy in his studies.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Kinesiology and Applied Physiology, University of Delaware (2015)
- M.Sc. in Exercise Science, Bloomsburg University (2010)
- B.Sc. in Exercise Science, Slippery Rock University (2009)
Research Interests: Dr. Matthews investigates cardiovascular adaptations to exercise, hypertension risk factors, and the physiological mechanisms underlying blood pressure regulation. His work emphasizes gender differences and the transition from normotensive to hypertensive states in at-risk populations.
Teaching: He teaches courses in exercise science and physiology, mentoring students in laboratory techniques and research design.
Volunteer Opportunities: He actively recruits research assistants and participants for studies on cardiovascular health. His lab emphasizes hands-on training and encourages students to lead independent projects.
Labs/Teams: Cardiovascular Physiology Lab at Montclair State University.
