Secondary students from 60 schools in England are helping with a survey of body mass index, peak flow rates and resting and racing pulses conducted by physiologists and other NHS experts. The students will upload the data to help assess health among people aged 14 to 16 and gain an understanding of a healthy lifestyle and how healthcare experts use data for diagnosis.
Other events include activities for children organised by biomedical scientists in the National Blood Service, and World COPD Day, November 17, which will raise awareness of this widespread lung problem.
