Heat Resilience & Performance Centre retweeted
🌏 The Philanthropy Asia Alliance is supporting the next stage of the Global Heat Health Information Network Southeast Asia Hub, based at the Heat Resilience & Performance Centre at NUS Medicine.
The support will advance country-led efforts in Indonesia and Thailand in 2027.
We are pleased to share that the @PAA_Temasek is supporting the Hub’s next stage of development, from strengthening regional knowledge and collaboration to advancing sustained, country-led heat action in Indonesia and Thailand, with a second SEA Heat Health Forum on the horizon.
The GHHIN Global Heat Forum is here and so are we. 🌏 Excited to be joining colleagues from across the region and the globe this week to advance heat-health action where it is needed most.

At the Asia Workplace Safety & Health Exchange, our Senior Research Fellow, Dr Sharifah Badriyah Alhadad, delivered a keynote on "Heat at Work: From Risk to Resilience" Read more linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… #HRPCSg #HeatResilience #WorkplaceSafety #OccupationalSafety @NUSMedicine
How do we prepare for a world where extreme heat is becoming the new reality? By bringing together over 230 global delegates from 62 nations to collectively discuss and explore how we can turn global commitments on cooling and heat resilience into action. #CoolCoalition #HRPCSg
What if heat affects your balance, even when your body doesn’t show obvious signs of greater heat strain? 🌡️
Swipe to discover what we found, and what this could mean for heat, balance and fall risk. @nusmedicine @nus_singapore #HRPCSg #HeatHealth #Type2Diabetes #HeatStress
Is all heat stress the same? Our gut may offer an important clue. Our latest publication explores the differences between passive and exertional hyperthermia, and what they can tell us about how #HeatStress affects the gut and the body. #HRPCSg @NUSMedicine @NUSingapore
🌡️ Team HRPC & HPTRP are at #ICEE2026! We’re excited to be at the 21st International Conference on Environmental Ergonomics, connecting with researchers from around the world and sharing our latest and ongoing work on heat, health and human performance. #HeatHealth #HRPCSg
At ECSS Lausanne and the inaugural ISENS Conference, HRPC Senior Research Fellow Dr. Tan Xiang Ren represented our team to explore a critical frontier: how extreme heat impacts the human brain—and how protecting neurological function can unlock human performance. #HRPCSg
Our Research Associate, Lin Wei, recently attended the 9th Advanced Course on Data Science & Machine Learning (ICAS) in Italy, where she presented our latest research on real-time body core temperature prediction using an arm-based sensor approach. #HRPCsg #MachineLearning #AI

Feeling cooler doesn't always mean your body is cooler. 🌡️When managing extreme heat exposure, there is a vital distinction between thermal comfort (how you feel) and physiological heat strain (your body's internal thermal load). #HeatHealth #HeatResilience #ClimateHealth
How do we prepare the next generation to tackle rising heat and humidity—one of the defining challenges of our time?🎥 Watch the video below to see their journey and hear their reflections on building a cooler, safer future.

What happens when our nights get warmer? Last week at the CREATE Symposium 2026, the Project HEATS (Heat Exposure, AcTivity and Sleep) team shared how rising night-time temperatures are affecting sleep, recovery, and health. #SleepResearch #HeatHealth #EnvironmentalPhysiology
