Academic writing skills by Katharine Stapleford on Prezi. Why is science important? - A collection of thoughts from leading scientists, public figures, ...and you. Sports Science in the Real World. With reports of supplement and substance abuse in Australian sport, supplements and sports science have been omnipresent in the Australian media as of late. Much of the media's focus has been negative, which is to be expected. However, at times like this, it is worth highlighting the high quality work that is being done by truly upstanding and innovative professionals in Sports Science and related fields. Here is an excellent resource, created by Prof Louise Burke and her team of the AIS Sports Nutrition department, that summarises the evidence base surrounding the possible performance-enhancing effects of various supplements.
This online resource is provided free to the public, which in itself is an uncommon act of generosity and transparency, given the elite sport setting where "trade secrets" are closely guarded. For me, it's also proof that not all sports scientists are created equal ;) Achieving Super Human Strength (2/4)
