Jeremy Robbins, MD, is an Instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School, a cardiologist, and researcher looking at the connection between exercise and cardiometabolic disease. His work is NIH-funded and aimed at helping understand why people respond to the same exercise program in different ways by studying genes, proteins, and small molecules. Robbins and his research collaborators hope to identify specific chemicals or biomarkers that help predict who benefits most from a given exercise program and to understand better how exercise mediates its exercise-induced health benefits. He also uses advanced cardiopulmonary exercise testing to study mechanisms of exercise intolerance.
