Exercise is Medicine Symposium scheduled for October 2nd
Thomas R. Ziegler, M.D., Associate Professor of Medicine, Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Lipids Director and Emory Center for Clinical and Molecular Nutrition Co-Program Director will host this symposium after discovering significant expertise and resources for exercise-related research collaborations within the ACTSI and Georgia State University. Dr. Ziegler writes, With the new NDS software we are obtaining for food record analysis, the ACTSI will have enhanced capabilities for nutrient intake analysis, which is a key component of exercise-related research. We are envisioning this initial symposium to be one primarily for introduction and brainstorming, with the ultimate goal of developing new multidisciplinary, multi-institutional collaborations supported by the ACTSI.
Those interested in participating or attending please RSVP (no later than September 24) to Jennifer Frediani MS, RD, LD, ACSM Exercise Specialist® certified, Bionutrition Research Director, ACTSI Clinical Interaction Network program at 404-712-7239 or jennifer.frediani@emory.edu.
