Research summary
AI-generated

Braxton A. Linder studies how the human body responds to physical and dietary stress, with a focus on cardiovascular and kidney function. Much of the work examines hydration, kidney injury markers, and blood pressure during endurance exercise (such as ultramarathons), as well as the effects of dietary salt and ketone supplementation. Additional projects look at firefighter occupational performance and factors like sleep and vitamin D in healthy adults.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
