On behalf of the 2019 Conference Committee, we are thrilled to invite you to attend the Australasian College of Sport and Exercise Physicians (ACSEP) Annual Scientific Conference. We would like to extend a special invitation to postgraduate students. As future leaders in sports and exercise medicine, you will have the opportunity to present your research in front of clinicians to fast-track knowledge translation to make a greater impact of your work. There will be numerous opportunities to connect with world leading experts, and social functions with many networking opportunities and much more.
The conference will be held from February 6-12, 2019 in the adventure capital of the world, Queenstown New Zealand. The conference theme is “Future proof your SEM” to highlight the future focus that the program will deliver. Principles in Sport and Exercise Medicine (SEM) should apply not only to the elite sportspeople we care for but also all members of the greater community, whether they are recreational athletes, weekend warriors or the inactive wishing to discover the many benefits of physical activity.
The faculty of pre-eminent international and local experts will deliver cutting-edge information on SEM and latest research innovations in implementation will be showcased. To cater to all delegates, we will offer a broad range of Stream options and Workshops.
This is a unique opportunity for the Global Sport and Exercise Medicine community; Sport and Exercise Physicians, Sports Doctors, General Practitioners, Registrars, Medical Students and other specialties to meet face to face in the ideal environment that Queenstown provides.
