Understand the Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Physical Activity-Induced Health Benefits

The NIH Common Fund is currently exploring research needs and opportunities related to the molecular mechanisms whereby physical activity prevents disease and improves health outcomes. This activity is undertaken with the leadership of the NIH Institute Directors Richard Hodes, M.D., National Institute on Aging (NIA), Stephen I. Katz, M.D., Ph.D., National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), and Griffin Rodgers, M.D., National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), and with broad support throughout the NIH. The Trans NIH Committee Physical Activity Common Fund (PACF) Working Group plans to cover the broad aspects of physical activity related benefits under 5 sub-working groups within these ICs (NIAMS, NIDDK, NIA and OSC)Air date: 10/30/2014 8:30:00 AM
