Professor Donna Wilson (University of Alberta, Canada) visited Queen's University Belfast today to learn more about the PARC study and develop international collaborations. Prof Wilson and Dr Tully are reviewing the scientific literature relating to physical activity promotion in older adults and are planning a study of the effects of seasonality on physical activity behaviours in older adults in Edmonton, Canada. The information will be compared to the findings in the PARC study, to allow some comparison in the way individuals in Northern Ireland and Canada respond to changing seasons.
