Grand Rounds 2017: “Exercise, Omics, and the Pediatric Origins of Health–Not Just For Kids Anymore”

At the end of this CME activity participants should be able to: 

  1. Identify the gas exchange biomarkers available in progressive cardiopulmonary exercise testing in children and adults.
  2. Recall how physical activity alters key immune cells that play a role in pediatric diseases like asthma and preventive health like the earliest origins of atherosclerosis 
  3. How exercise biomarkers can be used to study novel pathophysiology of diseases like sickle cell anemia, the incidence of which is much higher in African-Americans compared with other racial/ethnic groups in the country
