Fuzhong Li, Senior Scientist
Fuzhong Li’s research focus has been health-related issues that face the fast-growing aging population. He addresses these issues using either behavioral-based exercise interventions or epidemiological analyses. Li began research that examines the effects of exercise, including tai chi, on balance, physical functioning, and risks of falls in 2001 and has since established a successful track record in both publications and NIH and CDC grant funding.
