International researchers and academics with an interest in preventing childhood obesity will visit QUT later this month for a training course which will showcase some key technologies in measuring body composition, energy expenditure and physical activity. Professor Andrew Hills and his Energy Metabolism Group will host a week-long training course with around 20 attendees from a number of countries in the Asia-Pacific region. During the week, attendees will tour around QUT’s Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation (IHBI) and gain further knowledge and techniques to assist them in the battle against childhood obesity. Professor Hills said the main goal of the group was to help research and capacity-building in developing countries, and that QUT was approached by the Australian Government to host the training course. Experts say you should go to a board-certified dermatologist, who is experienced with lasers and specializes in removing tattoos. Read Childhood Obesity
