Lindsey L. Page, PhD, MPH, ACSM-CEP, is a Cancer Prevention Fellow in the NCI Office of Cancer Survivorship. Dr. Page’s research explores the relationship between cognitive decline, frailty, and physical activity in cancer survivors. Specifically, her recent work has aimed to examine subpopulations of survivors at greatest risk for cancer-associated cognitive decline and to identify neurobiological indicators of the effects of physical activity on brain health. Dr. Page is also interested in examining survivors’ adherence to physical activity recommendations and opportunities to implement lifestyle-based physical activity interventions to optimize quality of life in cancer survivorship.
Prior to joining NCI, Dr. Page received certification from the American College of Sports Medicine as a Clinical Exercise Physiologist (ACSM-CEP) with the Exercise is Medicine Credential to help individuals with chronic conditions adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles. She also coordinated exercise trials aimed to improve cognition, fitness, and quality of life in breast cancer survivors.
