This week, I am paying a brief visit to my friend and colleague David Allison at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).

To those working in the field, David needs no introduction. He is certainly one of the most prolific researchers with hundreds of high-ranking papers covering an astonishing array of topics.

As some readers may recall, David was also instrumental in helping us validate the Edmonton Obesity Staging System in the NHANES population.

During my visit I will have the opportunity of meeting with several of his esteemed colleagues and will certainly leave with a number of stimulating insights into the obesity work happening here in Birmingham.

These are delivered weekly from David’s group in a compilation fittingly called Obesity and Energetics Offerings from the UAB Nutrition & Obesity Research Centre (NORC) – to subscribe to this newsletter click here.
