The modern era of human body composition research involves new methodology development, compartment modeling, and its translation to understanding growth, aging, and disease processes. Whether it is the study of childhood or adult obesity, weight gain or loss, metabolic function or disease, an understanding of which body components are of clinical relevance is important.

This symposium with its theme “Body Composition & Metabolic Function Across the Lifespan” will convene many of the leading scientists in their respective fields who are involved in body composition research. The objectives of this symposium include:

  • the dissemination of up-to-date information on new and potential future developments in the field of body composition research with clinically relevant end-points;
  • the dissemination of research findings arising from recent scientific investigations that demonstrate the importance/utility of measuring body composition for the understanding of clinically important questions;
  • a review of the advances made in the last 3 years in body composition research, with particular emphasis on translational aspects of the advances (with application to clinical research-growth, aging, obesity, and diseases);
  • encouragement of young investigators to attend to further the objective of training new investigators in the field;
  • publication of the conference proceedings in a journal stressing the important issues discussed.

The meeting offers an opportunity to share experiences, network, and refresh old friendships. We welcome you to join us and be part of this unique event.

When we get a cold we run for the nearest pharmacy, stock on medicine and stay in bed. If our cough doesn’t clear within a reasonable time span we go for a scan. We do something. But when people get depression they sometimes ignore the obvious symptoms or wait for them to go away.

Depression is a serious decease and it affects a significant number of people every day. There is nothing wrong with you if you get depression, it is not your fault or anybody else’s fault. It is simply an illness like all illnesses it requires treatment. Waiting for the symptoms to go away can be dangerous as depression may go into deeper stages where recovery becomes more remote and difficult to reach.

That is why with just a few symptoms on hand you should get help for depression and learn as much as you can about your symptoms, prospects and approaches to treatment. There are no strings attached and you can choose a technique that will suit your lifestyle. Whether it’s traditional psychotherapy, treatment with medication, yoga, aromatherapy or guided imagery you are likely to succeed as long as you do something.

This is easier said than done because depression may entail passivity or even panic attacks when you are unable to start a phone conversation. If so, learn about basic ways to relieve stress for a healthy start. Jump off the coach and get moving!
