Undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and researchers are invited to submit abstracts.
Authors should indicate their preference for either poster or oral presentation.
Session 1: Physical activity intervention for cardiovascular health
Abstracts related to novel approaches and strategies to promote healthy behavior in particular an active lifestyle.
This might include:
• Monitoring physical activity
