Since 2017, the BMC SAS Center for Physical Activity has been running various group physical activity programs under the expert guidance of a trainer / physical therapist, followed by research into the measurable health benefits. It is a platform for interaction between scientists, doctors, and experts in physiology and kinesiology. It enables endurance and strength training for volunteers in research studies and clients of the Center for Physical Activity and the BMC SAS Clinical Research Unit, and creates a space for acquiring scientific knowledge about the positive effects of regular and one-off exercise on health. 

It implements short- and long-term training programs and studies for seniors, patients with Parkinson’s disease, obese patients, and cancer survivors. Researchers monitor the effects of exercise on the brain, memory, metabolism, fitness, and various chronic diseases. At the cellular, tissue, and molecular levels, they also investigate the mechanisms that mediate the positive effects of exercise on people and their health.
