Sedentary Behavior Research Network

The Sedentary Behavior Research Network (SBRN) is a group of scientists dedicated to studying sedentary behavior—activities that involve sitting or lying down with low energy use, like watching TV or working at a computer. They aim to better understand how such behaviors impact health and how to reduce their negative effects. By sharing research and developing guidelines, SBRN helps inform individuals, healthcare providers, and policymakers about the importance of balancing sedentary activities with physical activity for overall well-being.
