Linda Pescatello

My interest in exercise physiology was partially determined by my father and his love for baseball and sports, and partially by my mother and her love for biology and health care, and her belief in the importance of movement in maintaining good personal health. I have always loved athletics and played varsity sports in high school and college. I majored in biology. So when I decided to pursue a graduate degree, there was a new emerging field, exercise physiology, which seemed like a natural career fit for me combining my love for sports and biology.
