New Research from the PACE Lab

Walking Engagement in Mexican Americans Who Participated in a Community-Wide Step Challenge in El Paso, TX was a collaborative effort on which Dr. Jennifer Gay, Director of the PACE Lab, was a co-author. The paper, published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, describes the results of a workplace-based walking challenge. Very few worksite wellness programs are designed for Hispanic communities. This research builds on the long-standing partnership between Dr. Gay and Dr. Jennifer Salinas at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center.
