Dr. Matt Bristow is a Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University's Faculty of Science and Engineering, specializing in psycho-neuro-immunology and the psychophysiology of stress. He directs the university's joint venture with Salimetrics Europe, providing saliva testing services for biomarkers like cortisol and secretory immunoglobulin A. His work bridges biological markers with psychosocial factors affecting health and wellbeing.
Research Focus:
- Temporal relationships between acute stress and immune responses
- Validation of salivary biomarkers for stress research
- Caregiver stress dynamics in neurodegenerative diseases
- Methodological advancements in psychophysiological measurement
Key Contributions:His publications examine stress appraisal mechanisms, salivary collection methodologies, and immune-mood interactions. Current projects analyze diurnal patterns in biomarker validity and measurement bias in psychoimmune research. The work with Salimetrics Europe establishes practical applications for stress monitoring in clinical and research settings.
