PURPOSE

 

A Program Announcement entitled Physical Activity and Cardiopulmonary

Health was published in NIH Guide, Vol. 23, No. 38, October 28, 1994

(PA-95-004).  The purpose of this notice is to provide changes in

contacts, addresses, and telephone numbers of staff as contacts at

NHLBI, NIDDK, and NINR for the Program Announcement.  Program staff

listed for the three Institutes have different physical activity

research interests for handling programmatic requests.  Dr. Elaine

Stone is interested in cardiovascular health of children/adolescents

and physical activity.  Dr. Denise Simons-Morton and Dr. P. Scott

Allender are interested in adults and coronary heart disease

prevention.  Dr. Tom Doubt is interested in cardiovascular

homeostasis; prevention, and therapy of cardiovascular disease;

mechanisms that reduce risk of infarction, arrhythmia~s or sudden

cardiac death.  Virginia Taggart is interested in the areas of asthma

and the effects of exercise on the pulmonary manifestations of cystic

fibrosis across all age groups.  Dr. Judith Fradkin is interested in

the effects of exercise on prevention and management of diabetes and

eating disorders related to physical activity.  Dr. Hilary Sigmon is
