About Jenna-Lee
Dr Jenna-Lee Taylor is a Lecturer in Clinical Exercise Physiology in the School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences within the Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences at the University of Queensland. She obtained her PhD in Exercise Physiology from the University of Queensland in 2019 as an NHMRC postgraduate research scholar. Her doctoral thesis, titled 'The feasibility, safety, adherence, and efficacy of high intensity interval training in rehabilitation for coronary heart disease,' earned her the Dean's Award for Outstanding HDR Theses. Prior to her academic career, Taylor worked as an exercise physiologist and dietitian in the cardiac rehabilitation department at The Wesley Hospital. Following her PhD, she completed a three-year postdoctoral research fellowship in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in the United States. She now heads the Physiology and Ultrasound Laboratory for Science and Exercise (PULSE).
Taylor's research examines the effects of exercise training and intensity on cardiovascular and brain health, with a focus on healthy ageing, risk reduction for cardiovascular disease, and prevention of vascular dementia. She is the principal investigator on an NIH-funded clinical trial (1R21AG073726) investigating exercise training's influence on cognitive function and cerebral blood flow regulation in patients with cardiovascular disease. Her major publications include 'Cardiac Rehabilitation in Women: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association' (Circulation, 2025), 'Exercise & Sports Science Australia Position Statement on exercise training in patients with chronic heart failure: 2025 update' (Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2026), 'Practical guidelines for exercise prescription in patients with chronic heart failure' (Heart Failure Reviews, 2023), 'Exercise and the brain in cardiovascular disease: A narrative review' (Heart and Mind, 2023), and 'The therapeutic role of exercise training during menopause for reducing vascular disease' (Experimental Physiology, 2024). Taylor serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention and holds memberships in the American Heart Association, Australian Cardiovascular Health and Rehabilitation Association, and Exercise and Sports Science Australia.
