    EARLY REGISTRATION ANNOUNCEMENT (Early deadline - February 17, 2003)

    PLEASE SEND REGISTRATION to Cathy Truda Ctruda@kysportsmed.com

    Research Retreat II
    ACL INJURIES: THE GENDER BIAS

    Presented by
    Kentucky Sports Medicine Clinic & Joyner Sportsmedicine Institute

    April 4th & 5th, 2003
    Hyatt Regency Lexington Hotel
    401 West High Street
    Lexington, Kentucky
    859-253-1234


    MISSION:

    It has been well recognized that female athletes are at significantly
    greater risk of injuring their ACL compared to their male counterparts.
    The reasons for this difference are not entirely clear. However, there
    are a number of directions currently being investigated including causes
    related to structural, biomechanical, neuromuscular and hormonal
    factors. This is the second research retreat on this topic. We hope to
    follow-up with the ongoing research in the area as well as discuss new
    research directives aimed at understanding the gender bias in the
    incidence of ACL injuries. It is hoped that the information provided
    will make a valuable contribution to the existing body of literature and
    continue to strengthen the foundation upon which optimal prevention and
    rehabilitation strategies can be developed.

    FORMAT:

    The format will incorporate one-hour presentations by the keynote
    speakers with group discussions to follow. In addition, there will be
    time allotted for a number of 20-minute podium presentations of research
    relating to gender bias in ACL injuries.
