About the Conference
Welcome and thank you for visiting the 2012 APS Intersociety Meeting: The Integrative Biology of Exercise VI web site. We are excited to announce that our next meeting is being hosted by the American Physiological Society and will be held at the Westin Westminster hotel located approximately 40 minutes outside of Denver, October 10—13, 2012.
About the Conference
This is the sixth meeting in the series of exercise physiology that began in 1992. This popular meeting includes intersociety collaborations from the American Physiological Society (APS), the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), and the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP).
Goals and Objectives
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.
