    Brief

    This research opportunity aims to quantify the risk of exertional heat illness (EHI) in Army trainees following vaccination. The study will measure thermal strain at 24 and 48 hours post-vaccination under controlled environmental conditions, comparing mild (influenza-only) and moderate (common vaccine combination) vaccine groups. This is a follow-on project to previous MOD-funded research that identified approximately a 3.5-fold increase in severe EHI risk during physical activity post-vaccination. The primary objective is to provide time-resolved, quantified risk data to support the development of operational policies and guidelines for military personnel receiving vaccinations. Researchers and institutions with expertise in thermal physiology, military medicine, or occupational health are encouraged to inquire about participation or collaboration opportunities.
