Dr. Paffenbarger, together with Professor Jeremy Morris of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Health, has been credited with pioneering the field of epidemiologic research on physical activity and health. Many, if not all, individuals conducting research in this area have been influenced by some aspect of Dr. Paffenbarger’s work. Below, we discuss some of Dr. Paffenbarger’s many contributions to the field – past, present, as well as future contributions.","PeriodicalId":89218,"journal":{"name":"President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports research digest","volume":"43 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77409851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
