Émeric STAUFFER
|
Emeric STAUFFER is a medical doctor and physiologist, with a strong background in sleep medicine and exercise physiology. After having finished his medical training, he obtained a master degree in Integrated Physiology in extreme conditions in 2017. Emeric is currently in the last year of a PhD in Lyon. He is working on the effects of chronic exposure to hypoxia on blood rheology. The 2 situations of chronic exposure to hypoxia studied are: chronic intermittent hypoxia induced by obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in sickle cell patients and permanent hypoxia in people living at high altitude (beyond 5 000m above sea level). He is a member of Expedition 5300, an international scientific program aiming at characterizing the physiological changes induced by life at high altitude in the highest city in the world (La Rinconada, Peru, 5100m) and studying the pathophysiological mechanisms of chronic mountain sickness with the aim of providing treatment. His main research topic is blood rheology and the impact of hypoxia (altitude or pathophysiology) or physical activity (in endurance athlete or in patients suffering from chronic disease). He is currently the head of the functional respiratory exploration, sports medicine and physical activity department at the Croix Rousse hospital, Hospices Civils de Lyon. |
