title: 2006 CSEP Annual Scientific Conference, Halifax, Nova Scotia, 1-4 November 2006. Pediatric exercise physiology symposium: a tribute to Oded Bar-Or. Introduction.
abstract: Dr. Oded Bar-Or was a pioneer in the study of children's physical activity, exercise, and health. His diverse research interests led to numerous scientific explorations on thermoregulation, aerobic and anaerobic capacity, physical activity, economy of movement, obesity, neuromuscular diseases, asthma, cystic fibrosis (CF), and many more. To commemorate the extraordinary contributions that Dr. Bar-Or made to the study of exercise and youth, a symposium on pediatric exercise physiology was held at the CSEP's 2006 Annual Meeting in Halifax. The papers in the following pages include the four papers presented by international colleagues in his memory.
