Ongoing - Studying the effectiveness of Qigong as an intervention with various populations. Working with Temple University, College of Public Health, School of Social Work.
2024-09-13
I have been working with the Temple University, College of Public Health, School of Social Work on a 5 year grant to study the effectiveness of qigong to improve the leg strength, balance, and quality of life of intellectually delayed adults. The School of Social Work did not get the grant this year. Instead, they have asked me to work with them on two pilot studies of a qigong intervention with intellectually delayed adults; one in the fall, one in the spring. The research group plans to re-apply for the grant next year. I'll keep you posted.
