Major Active Projects
- Serial changes and associations
among patterns of change in body composition, fat-related variables,
and risk factors for cardiovascular disease (e.g., lipids and lipoproteins,
blood pressure, fatness, and fat distribution)
- Genetic epidemiology
of risk factors for cardiovascular disease
- Causal relationships
among body composition, adipose tissue distribution, lifestyle, and
risk factors for disease
- The development, implementation, and validation of
new methods for the study of body composition
