This is the FIRST live streamed only, three day professional conference discussing Sports Science. We have gathered together invited speakers from around the world, who you might not otherwise have access to.
Covering a broad range of topics within Sports Science, this live streamed event will provide plenty of opportunity for networking and debate.
This informal international meeting will bring you up to date with current research and technology regarding enhancing performance, injury prevention and rehabilitation, and exercise physiology and nutrition. We encourage presentations from the wide spectrum of sports professionals, including physiology, psychology, biomechanics and nutrition.
We encourage questions, discussion and debate and have a relaxed atmosphere which generates maximum interaction online.
After registration you will be connected to an online networking site where you will be able to have discussions with all participants of this event, before, during and after the meeting.
The event will be recorded and available for all registered delegates up to a month after the event. So if you cant manage all the days, or the different time zones, you can still have access to the full event.
Who Should Attend: All professionals involved in treatment and prevention of injuries related to sports would benefit from coming to this event, including those involved in sports physiology, psychology, biomechanics and nutrition. Including research scientists and clinicians, and those with an interest in industry.
