VIDEOS OF PROFESSOR KARLMANN WASSERMAN & PROFESSOR BRIAN WHIPP LECTURING
Many of you will have never seen Karl or Brian lecturing. The link below is Karl making the introduction to the 2008 Practicum in Oporto, Portugal
and Brian giving his lecture “The Physiological Basis of Exercise Performance”. Later I will add the lecture by Karl “Pathophysiology Limiting Exercise”.
Karl was a Medical Professor at the then Harbor UCLA and Brian an oustanding physiologist. They worked together for years.
In 2008 the society was called ISEIRE (International Society for Exercise Intolerance Research and Education) a name always favored by Karl.
The link below is Karl’s lecture “Pathophysiology Limiting Exercise”
