Each day we make hundreds of decisions that ultimately affect our health. How can we help adolescents make choices now that will lead to a healthier lifestyle? The Office of Research on Women's Health Seminar Series will present an afternoon of discussion with national experts in the field of adolescent health. Topics range from sleep behaviors in adolescence to physical activity in youth and addictive behaviors. This is your chance to hear from NIH researchers who are working to increase health awareness and ensure healthy habits at a time of life when decision making is often not seen in terms of life long consequences.
