Research summary
It’s often said that kids don’t get enough exercise these days. But how much exercise do they really need? What is a safe amount of exercise for children who are growing up with a chronic health condition? And how can we better understand the roles that sex and gender play in promoting exercise?
These are just some of the important questions that Dr. Brian Timmons will address as Canada Research Chair in Child Health and Exercise Medicine. Ultimately, he and his research team aim to generate the knowledge needed to promote exercise as medicine both in Canada and globally.
