معرفی
Stéphane Nottin is a Professor of Exercise Physiology at Avignon Université, affiliated with the STAPS school and the Laboratory of Experimental Cardiovascular Physiology (LaPEC). His research focuses on cardiac adaptations to physical exercise, particularly in extreme conditions like ultra-trail running and the effects of doping substances such as anabolic steroids in strength sports. He uses innovative echocardiographic techniques for his studies, targeting top-tier exercise physiology journals.

Research interests include understanding how the heart adapts to prolonged training, identifying early-stage vascular/cardiac dysfunction, and studying stress-induced cardiac aggravation in athletes. He emphasizes interdisciplinary methods combining physiology, fluid mechanics, and programming to analyze cardiac function.
Recent publications address anabolic steroids' impact on bodybuilders' myocardium and long-term exercise effects on young triathletes' cardiac function. No specific grants or awards are listed, though he supervises doctoral students and advocates for open science practices through platforms like HAL Avignon.
LaPEC's broader work examines cardiovascular health improvement via exercise/nutrition in cardiometabolic disease contexts, with a continuum from early-stage dysfunction detection to stress-induced pathology studies.
