10-30-09: Had the privilege of being part of a panel, speaking on exergaming, games for health, and seniors at this conf., held at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. The theme was "Living Longer and Better Through Technology" so the topic of exergaming fit right in!
Besides presenting, had the chance to network with other folks interested in gerontology and hopefully, will be collaborating with some of these researchers in the near future on exergaming studies in seniors, since there is hardly any research in this area.
According to a series on PA published in Lancet 2012, physical inactivity is the 4th leading cause of death worldwide. This blog is dedicated to eradicating HYPOKINETIC DISEASE. We are missing out on the most powerful "pill" to improve the health and quality of life for all Americans!
