<p><span style="font-size:14.0pt">A multidisciplinary team of Florida State University researchers, led by two Faculty Affiliates of the Institute for Successful Longevity, has received a $3-million National Institutes of Health grant to examine how resistance
training may help older women struggling with obesity to potentially prevent Type 2 diabetes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Professors of Nutrition and Integrative Physiology Robert Hickner and Michael Ormsbee, both ISL Faculty Affiliates, will co-lead the project, which also will include colleagues from the FSU College of Health and Human Sciences
and the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Louisiana as well as the University of Arkansas.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:14.0pt">The co-investigators at FSU are Claire Berryman, Ph.D., from Nutrition and Integrative Physiology and Thomas Ledermann, Ph.D., from Human Development and Family Science, in the College of Health and Human Sciences; and Michael
Sweeney, M.D., from the Department of Clinical Sciences, in the College of Medicine.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
