Audrey Stone is an Associate Professor and the Director of the Autonomic Control of Circulation Laboratory at the University of Texas at Austin. She received a B.S. in Health Science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, an M.S. in Kinesiology- Athletic Training from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, and a Ph.D. in Kinesiology from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. She completed her postdoctoral fellowship in the Heart and Vascular Institute at the Pennsylvania State College of Medicine. Dr. Stones research interests focus on the autonomic control of circulation during exercise in health and disease. She specializes in the exercise pressor reflex and how this mechanism is altered by either type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
