Why are some people shivering from cold while others feel comfortable? How does our body react to a heat wave? Are saunas and ice baths healthy or not? Thermophysiologist Prof Wouter van Marken Lichtenbelt (UM) dives into the world of body temperature. Using everyday examples, he explains how humans and animals regulate their temperature. Come to this lecture if you want to know more about heat, cold and the battle for the thermostat dial. Van Marken Lichtenbelt is author of the Dutch book Van rillen tot zweten: de wetenschap achter lichaamstemperatuur van mens en dier (2023).
