Ken Parsons is Emeritus Professor of Environmental Ergonomics at Loughborough University, UK. After completing a PhD and postdoctoral research at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, University of Southampton, he founded the Human Thermal Environments Laboratory at Loughborough in 1981. Ken became head of the Department of Human Sciences in 1996 covering research and teaching in ergonomics, psychology and human biology. He was Dean of Science in 2003 to 2009, and pro-vice chancellor for research from 2009 to 2012. He is convenor of the International standards working group on Ergonomics and integrated environments. He has produced over 200 publications including the CRC Press books Human Thermal Environments (2014), Human Thermal Comfort (2020), Human Heat Stress (2019) and Human Cold Stress (2021).
