For several years the USMS Sports Medicine and Science Committee has been arranging presentations that are given during national championship meets. Leading professionals provide information on various sports science and medicine topics.
The committee is interested in finding out what medical and scientific topics related to swimming, training, and health you are interested in hearing about.
Please post your requests and we will design upcoming presentations around the most popular topics.
Thanks for your input.

Nutrition and muscle recovery as we age would be a good topic too.
Recovery is always uppermost in my mind as well.
I'd be interesting in knowing more about how whether and how women taper differently than men. Do we need less rest or not? When should women stop weights during taper? Should weights be tapered too? Do you need more or less of a taper as you age?
