Posted July 14th, 2011 by

I wanted to mention Erwan’s presentation from last night as I put up the day 3 blog post before I saw it. The topic was human metabolism and it focused on the interplay of hormones such as insulin and growth hormone in performance,  health and disease. For me it’s refreshing Read more…
