Fabio Laginestra, Ph.D., is an academic researcher affiliated with the University of Utah. He holds a Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Biomedicine and Movement from the University of Verona (Italy), an M.S. in Exercise Physiology from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Norway), and a B.S. in Sport Sciences from the University of Insubria (Italy). His research focuses on the mechanistic basis of fatigue, integrating circulatory, respiratory, metabolic, and neuromuscular responses during exercise. Current work emphasizes neurally-mediated cardiovascular adjustments in chronic pain patients and sex-based variability in fatigue mechanisms.
Key research areas include the exercise pressor reflex in heart failure, limb-specific blood flow regulation in amputees, and mitochondrial influences on exercise performance. His studies also explore neuromuscular fatigue in patients with Parkinson’s disease and the role of muscle afferents in exercise performance limitations. Recent work addresses allostatic load in PTSD patients and the impact of cancer treatments on exercise physiology.
Publications from 2023–2025 highlight investigations into autonomic adjustments during prolonged exercise, sex differences in neuromuscular function, and the efficacy of rehabilitation strategies. His interdisciplinary approach bridges neuroscience, exercise physiology, and clinical research to advance understanding of human performance and disease-related physiological impairments.
