2008 APS Intersociety Meeting: The Integrative Biology of Exercise V
September 24-27, 2008
Hilton Head, South Carolina

Welcome and thank you for visiting the Integrative Biology of Exercise-V meeting web site.  This meeting is the fifth in a series of intersociety collaborations sponsored by the American Physiological Society (APS), the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), and the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP).

About the Meeting

This meeting is designed to bring together scientists from all over the world who have been involved in research interest in the broad area of exercise physiology. The meeting is designed to provide a strong scientific program with participant interaction and emphasize emerging research performed by young investigators.

The participants will likely focus on recent important advances in the traditional areas of interest in exercise (e.g. metabolic control, cell signaling, satellite/stem cells biology, hypertrophy, vascular adaptations) as well as significant new developments in emerging areas of science that have great relevance to investigators interested in exercise (e.g. mechanical signal transduction, AMPK, cytokines). 

The goal is to provide an in-depth understanding of exercise physiology and interdisciplinary efforts to assess its impact on the systems of the body. In addition, the goal is to outline directions for future work and to interest new investigators and students in pursuing research opportunities to understand the integrative biology of exercise and its relation to gender and aging.
