Physiotherapies, Physical Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine

The "Doping and Anti-Doping Studies" track examines the critical issues surrounding performance-enhancing substances and the strategies employed to combat their use in sports. Researchers are invited to submit abstracts that explore the pharmacological, physiological, and ethical dimensions of doping, as well as the effectiveness of current anti-doping policies and practices.

Key areas of interest include the mechanisms of action of various performance-enhancing drugs, the impact of doping on athlete health and safety, and the socio-cultural factors influencing substance use in competitive sports. This track also encourages research on advancements in detection methods and the role of education in promoting clean sport.

By sharing their findings, researchers will contribute to the ongoing discourse on doping in sports, advocating for integrity, health, and fairness. This track aims to foster collaboration among sports scientists, medical professionals, and policymakers to develop effective strategies that protect the integrity of athletic competition.
