Abstract

The advancement of science demands people and organizations work together toward worthy goals, a need that is especially pronounced in nascent fields like physical behavior. Partnerships offer an ideal vehicle for long-term collaboration to build research capacity, develop new scientific endeavors, and nurture talent. In this commentary, we discuss the newly formed partnership between two key players of the field of physical behavior, the Prospective Physical Activity, Sitting, and Sleep consortium (ProPASS) and the International Society for the Measurement of Physical Behaviour (ISMPB).
