Abstract
Ralph Seal Paffenbarger, Jr, M.D.; Dr.P.H.; D.Sc.,h.c. was born on October 21, 1922 in Columbus, Ohio; he died on July 9, 2007 from congestive heart failure in Sante Fe, New Mexico. Dr. Paffenbarger, together with Professor Jeremy Morris of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Health, has been credited with pioneering the field of epidemiologic research on physical activity and health. Many, if not all, individuals conducting research in this area have been influenced by some aspect of Dr. Paffenbarger’s work. Below, we discuss some of Dr. Paffenbarger’s many contributions to the field – past, present, as well as future contributions.
Ralph Seal Paffenbarger, Jr .,医学博士;Dr.P.H。科学博士,h.c。1922年10月21日出生于俄亥俄州哥伦布市;2007年7月9日,他在新墨西哥州的圣菲因充血性心力衰竭去世。帕芬巴格博士与伦敦卫生与热带健康学院的杰里米·莫里斯教授一道,被认为是体育活动与健康的流行病学研究领域的先驱。许多(如果不是全部的话)从事这一领域研究的个人都受到了帕芬伯格博士工作的某些方面的影响。下面,我们将讨论帕芬伯格博士对该领域的一些贡献——过去、现在和未来的贡献。
