Fernando Gabe Beltrami

Dr. Fernando Gabe Beltrami is a Lecturer at the Department of Health Sciences and Technology, ETH Zürich, Switzerland. He holds a PhD in Exercise Sciences from the University of Cape Town (2013) and a BSc in Physical Education from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (2007). His research focuses on understanding cardiorespiratory responses to high-intensity exercise, optimizing training protocols, and evaluating population-specific responses to interventions.

Key research areas include sleep quality in intensive care units, respiratory muscle training, and the physiological impacts of exercise modalities. He has published extensively on topics such as exercise-induced fatigue, metabolic cost of running, and cardiovascular adaptations. His work bridges clinical and applied exercise physiology, emphasizing practical applications for athletes and clinical populations.

Recent studies highlight advancements in footwear technology, arrhythmia management during exercise, and the physiological effects of midsole thickness in running. Beltrami collaborates internationally, contributing to evidence-based guidelines for exercise testing and training.
