Ashley Watkins, BS, masters student in the School of Kinesiology, is the lead author of an article to be published in the Journal of Pediatrics. The article, “Childhood Wrist Circumference is Not a Predictor of Insulin Resistance in Adulthood,” examined whether the circumference of the wrist in childhood predicted insulin resistance in adulthood, with results suggesting wrist circumference is not a predictor. Donald R. Dengel, Ph.D., professor of kinesiology and director of the Laboratory of Integrative Human Physiology, and Kara Marlatt, doctoral student in the school, are co-authors on this article.
