Current Research
- Colberg, S., Swain, D., Somma, T. & Sechrist, S. (2006) Exercise Timing and Maximal Glycemic Benefits for Type 2 Diabetic Individuals. A collaborative effort with Drs. Sheri Colberg (PI) and David Swain from the ODU Dept. of Exercise Science. This project will examine if timing of moderate and intense bouts of aerobic exercise around a meal can effect the glycemic effect of the activity in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
- Coleberg, S., Raymer, A.,, Somma, T., Sechrist, S. (2007) Project entitled "The Relationship among Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia, Diabetes and Physical Activity Status" was awarded $30,000. The study is a collaborative effort with Drs. Sheri Colberg (PI) (ODU Dept of Exercise Science) and Anastasia Raymer (ODU Dept. of Special Education) and will examine the relationship among cognitive status, exercise status, and type 2 diabetes or impaired fasting glucose.
