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.

On the coaches tab, there are some very good resources on sports medicine and exercise physiology.
Besides the other items mentioned, I don't believe much research has been done in the area of hormone levels, aging and performance.
Personally, I'm getting more and more cranky as I get older. I'm swimming about the same times as I did ten years ago - but that can be chalked up to rule changes and swim suit "enhancements".
