Practical Applications of Energy Balance Models (4 videos) | Speaker: Dr. Martin

  Week 1

 Purpose

The purpose of this video lecture is to discuss the need for energy balance models, and why they are useful yet imperfect. The video lecture also focuses on how energy balance models help address conflicts in the literature and address scientific (clinically relevant) questions.

 Meet the Guest Speaker

Corby Martin is a Professor and Director of the Ingestive Behavior, Weight Management, & Health Promotion Laboratory at Pennington Biomedical. Dr. Martin completed his doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Louisiana State University and a Post-doctoral Fellowship at the Medical University of South Carolina.

The overarching goal of Dr. Martin’s research is to develop tools and interventions to help people live healthier lives through diet and exercise. Dr. Martin was part of a team that developed innovative methods to quantify dietary adherence based on observed body weight, and the team integrated these methods into successful weight management interventions that are delivered in clinics and remotely via mobile health technology.

 

  Video Lecture
