Jason Lee (PhD, FACSM) is an Associate Professor in the School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore. He directs the Heat Resilience and Performance Centre based at the university and chairs the Scientific Committee on Thermal Factors at the International Commission on Occupational Health. Jason is a Fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine. His main interests are in fluid balance, thermoregulation and heat mitigation strategies. He studies the physiological demands associated with heat stress and how humans adapt to ensure optimum performance and survival. A key outcome of his research is the formulation of a holistic heat management system. This is achieved through profiling the associated heat strain in humans under various settings, designing and evaluating heat mitigation strategies and finally translating the findings to policies and guidelines.
