The Center for Lifestyle Medicine at the University of Central
Florida (CLM at UCF) is a multidisciplinary organization dedicated
to providing research and education in the emerging field of
Lifestyle Medicine. The CLM at UCF is a bold collaborative
effort to offer multidisciplinary approaches to combat the
diseases of the 21st century. CLM at UCF researchers conduct
studies in physical activity, nutrition, weight management
and disease prevention. A vigorous program of application
of research findings to educate students at all levels and
the public at large about the power of lifestyle decisions
and their impact on health is also a part of the vision of
the CLM at UCF. |
