We gathered in Paris to present new work on exercise and the molecular understanding of its actions and benefits. Exercise has been understood for centuries to provide
benefits to the human body. Diet and exercise have long been prescribed as the first
lines of therapy for metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. However,
it is perhaps not fully appreciated that exercise is also effective at improving the
function of the liver, muscles themselves, and (importantly) the brain. Endurance
exercise is one of the only ways that adult humans can stimulate de novo neurogenesis. If we can understand the precise ways that these benefits occur, we can hope to
both optimize exercise protocols and perhaps find molecular entities that can bring
benefits beyond what can be done by exercise alone.
