DEVELOPING PRACTICAL WAYS TO INCREASE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN OLDER ADULTS

THE ACTIVE LAB

Our lab is focused on the study of free-living behaviors in the home and community environment, how these behaviors benefit health, and ways to increase activity.  We are particularly focused on people with lower body arthritis and people who have undergone a joint replacement.  The goal of the lab is to develop clinically feasible and practical ways to increase physical activity in older adults, in people with arthritis, and people after total joint replacement.
