Symposium: Extreme Physiology: From the ICU to the ISS
2:00 – 3:30 pm ADT
Point Sainte-Anne A
Exploration of the unknown and the extreme has been a constant part human history. These endeavors challenge the limits of normal physiology in abnormal environments and contribute to our fund of knowledge. The lessons learned from these adventures often translate to the management of acute and chronic diseases in our patients with abnormal physiology in normal, clinical environments. The presenters on this panel have significant experience evaluating human physiology in settings ranging from free diving to unimaginable underwater depths, to climbing the summits of Mount Kilimanjaro or Mount Everest, to flying to the International Space Station (ISS) for long-duration space missions, and all points in between. The panel will speak to the challenges in the preparation, performance, and reconditioning phases of these adventures. The panel will highlight how high-quality research performed in extreme environments have contributed to our knowledge of musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, and aging processes to promote everyday health for everyday people with a look ahead to some of the exciting challenges in the commercial space realm.
Speakers:
- Bruce Johnson – High Altitude Physiology and the Aging Adult
- Michael Harrison
- Natalie Hirsch – Physical Reconditioning after Long Duration Space Flight

Symposium: Reducing Sedentary Time: Considerations Across the Lifespan
2:00 – 3:30 pm ADT
Point Sainte-Anne B
Sedentary time is recognized as a distinct risk factor for poor health, including associations with cardiometabolic disease risk factors and all-cause mortality. These risks are especially high among individuals with low physical activity. Prolonged time spent in sedentary behaviours can also lead to other negative consequences including musculoskeletal discomfort, reduced mobility, and diminished concentration and productivity. Sedentary behaviour is ubiquitous across leisure, transport, occupational, and household domains, so across the lifespan Canadians spend a significant portion of their waking time (> 9 hours per day) sedentary. This session will summarize the negative consequences associated with excessive sedentary time, and highlight the consequences that are of greatest concern for 3 distinct demographic groups; children, adults, and older adults. We will also provide practical, evidence-based, suggestions of how to reduce and break up sedentary time. The presentations will conclude with a summary of the specific challenges and considerations for reducing sedentary time in each age group, which will then open the floor for a roundtable discussion with audience.
Speakers:
- Chair: Michelle Cardoso – Working Adults: Dr. Michelle Cardoso: will address the negative health effects associated with prolonged sitting at the workplace, as well as provide insight on new research in active sitting and standing workstations as a means to reduce sedentary behavior
- Jennifer Copeland – Dr. Jennifer Copeland will focus on the unique health concerns of older adults, including functional impairments that lead to dependence. For those in assisted-living, sedentary behaviour is especially prevalent because there is no need to complete household chores. Strategies to reduce sedentary time in that environment will be considered
- Stephanie Prince Ware
- Travis Saunders – Dr. Travis Saunders will address the relationship between sedentary behaviour and health outcomes in children and youth, as well ways to reduce sedentary behaviour at home and in school

Back to the Future: moving forward by looking back
Consistent with Dr. John Sutton’s adventure-seeking and iconoclastic abilities and personality, this presentation will chronicle my quest to understand temporal trends in movement behaviours through a variety of time-travel techniques. This presentation will take us on an anthropological journey to try and understand the catalysts, enablers and accelerators of lifestyle transitions that have culminated in modern living. We will visit Old Order Amish and Mennonites, sub-Saharan Africa, countries from around the world, and sci-fi simulations.
Our changing world is changing us, in few ways more evident than how we move. Globally, immigration and urbanization movements are transforming people’s lives. The electronic revolution has fundamentally transformed our movement patterns by changing where and how we live, learn, work, play and travel, progressively isolating people indoors (e.g., houses, schools, workplaces, vehicles) most often in chairs. At an individual level, we are sleeping less, sitting more, walking infrequently, driving regularly and getting less physical activity. We are moving from one country to another, from rural to urban areas, from outdoors to indoors, from standing to sitting, from walking to driving, from active play to digital play, from three dimensional to two dimensional interactions, and at a macro-level countries are moving through epidemiologic and economic transitions at varying rates. These exposomal changes in our macro-, meso- and micro-movement behaviours, patterns and contexts may have profound though poorly understood impacts on human health. How such impact varies spatially, temporally, culturally, or by indices of country human development can provide fascinating insights and provide a model for time-travel – essentially moving forward by looking back.
Global patterns of disease are transitioning from predominantly communicable diseases to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) commensurate with the epidemiologic transition. The influence of the exposome on this global shift in morbidity and mortality has prompted rethinking of terminology and it has been recommended that NCDs be more appropriately termed socially transmitted conditions (STCs – that bind NCDs together using their common upstream drivers). Movement characteristics at macro-, meso-, and micro-levels feature prominently in the etiology of STCs, consistent with both research evidence and intuition. For example, physical inactivity is the fourth leading risk factor for death worldwide. Transitions and evolutions (e.g., across strata of human development, geospatial shifts, community design, automation, mechanization, digitization) unintentionally conspire to transform our movement behaviours, adversely impacting our habitual sleep, sedentary and physical activity behaviours. This reality threatens progress towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals as outlined in the Bangkok Declaration on Physical Activity for Global Health and Sustainable Development, the World Health Organization’s Global Action Plan on Physical Activity, and Canada’s Common Vision for Increasing Physical Activity and Reducing Sedentary Living.
Globally, physical inactivity is associated with 5.3 million deaths a year, and $53.8 B in health care costs. A greater understanding of the societal forces and individual behaviours, determinants and intrinsic factors that are associated with large-scale shifts in human movement patterns will help identify intervention strategies at the macro-, meso-, micro-levels that can address this significant, expanding and progressing public health burden. The field of movement behaviour epidemiology (physical activity, sedentary behaviour, sleep, combined compositional analyses) is in its relative infancy but may be the key to get back to the future.
