Residency/ Fellowships/ Internships

St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, an Academic Affiliate of Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, is a 1,076-bed, full-service community and tertiary care hospital. St. Luke's-Roosevelt was formed in 1979 by a merger of St. Luke's Hospital, adjacent to the campus of Columbia University, and The Roosevelt Hospital, located two blocks west of Columbus Circle. The St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals, established in 1846 and 1871, respectively, brought to their merger extraordinary records of medical "firsts" and commitment to their patients.

St. Luke's-Roosevelt also is widely respected for high quality clinical care and for its contributions to research. Throughout its history St. Luke's-Roosevelt also has placed strong emphasis on responding with compassion and sensitivity to the unique needs of the communities it serves, including areas whose residents have multiple social and economic challenges. The Hospital Center's ability to serve these populations is enhanced through relationships with groups including the William F. Ryan Community Health Center and the Council Health Center, as well as through school-based clinics at area high schools. St. Luke's-Roosevelt initiates and supports a wide range of community health-focused activities and maintains an extensive network of relationships with churches and community groups throughout the West Side and Upper Manhattan.

Roosevelt Hospital offers a special wing of private rooms and suites that features deluxe amenities in an appealing environment.

"Body Composition & Metabolic Function Across the Lifespan" Symposium

The meeting will take place under the auspices of the New York Obesity Research Center, the Body Composition Laboratories in conjunction with St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital and Columbia University.

The modern era of human body composition research involves new methodology development, compartment modeling, and its translation to understanding growth, aging, and disease processes. Whether it is the study of childhood or adult obesity, weight gain or loss, metabolic function or disease, an understanding of which body components are of clinical relevance is important.

This symposium with its theme “Body Composition & Metabolic Function Across the Lifespan” will convene many of the leading scientists in their respective fields who are involved in body composition research. The objectives of this symposium include:
the dissemination of up-to-date information on new and potential future developments in the field of body composition research with clinically relevant end-points; the dissemination of research findings arising from recent scientific investigations that demonstrate the importance/utility of measuring body composition for the understanding of clinically important questions; a review of the advances made in the last 3 years in body composition research, with particular emphasis on translational aspects of the advances (with application to clinical research-growth, aging, obesity, and diseases); encouragement of young investigators to attend to further the objective of training new investigators in the field; publication of the conference proceedings in a journal stressing the important issues discussed.

The meeting offers an opportunity to share experiences, network, and refresh old friendships. We welcome you to join us and be part of this unique event. "
