#18 - Integrative physiology of exercise with Dr Michael Joyner

Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor Michael Joyner from the Mayo Clinic. He has a remarkable background being an anaesthesiologist with wealth of research experience and knowledge in exercise physiology. More recently he has published around 20 high impact papers on the use of convalescent plasma in Covid19! An example of how he is so open to new ideas. A very interesting chat.
