Linda E. May
East Carolina University
Dr. Linda May, associate professor at East Carolina University (ECU), teaches anatomy and physiology, and is adjunct faculty for Health and Human Performance as well as Obstetrics and Gynecology in the Brody School of Medicine. Dr. May conducts research on topics relating to the influence of maternal exercise during pregnancy on maternal, placental, and child health outcomes. Her research is presented in world-wide media outlets, including the New York Times and Good Morning America.
Dr. May received a PhD from Kent State University and Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine. Her dissertation focus was on the development of the cardiac beta-adrenergic system in BAX and NGF knockout mice. She attended the University of Florida where she earned a MS, graduating Cum Laude in Exercise Physiology. Dr. May also graduated, with Honors, from the University of Florida with a BS in Sports Administration.
Dr. May published her first book “Physiology of Prenatal Exercise and Fetal Development” in 2012, and has received numerous Health Science Author Awards. Dr. May has taught for over seventeen years, in subjects including histology, physiology, and gross anatomy. Her hobbies and interests include spending time with her family, biking, exercising, gardening, cooking, and the outdoors.
