Faculty accomplishments

David Senchina was recently invited to co-author a consensus statement on the relationship between exercise, nutrition, and the immune system for the journal Exercise Immunology Review, one of the top-ranked journals in the “sports science” category according to Thompson Reuters. The statement comprises multiple sections, each written by different specialists from eight different countries. David’s portion of the article was on herbal supplements (such as echinacea and ginseng) and how they influence athletes’ immune systems. The statement also applies knowledge from these categories to specific clinical populations beyond athletes, such as military personnel and the elderly. Download the article for free here.
