Want to know what we've been up to at the PCC? Take a look at our latest annual report to learn more about the #antidoping research projects we've funded, our 2023 PCC Conference, and more. cleancompetition.org/2024/08/16/pcc…

Research & development are critical for advancing the Athlete Biological Passport & other areas of #antidoping #science, & investing resources in this work has real-world impacts on #cleansport. Learn about new ABP developments in this episode: cleancompetition.org/2024/08/06/131… WADA

In this recent paper scientists proposed & validated a method to measure thyroid hormones and related compounds in urine using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Its efficacy was successfully demonstrated with an excretion study. …iencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/dt… #antidoping

Products with research chemicals can pose health risks to elite athletes and the general public. Learn more about these substances in this article from USADA and also our recent podcast interview with Dr. Amy Eichner: cleancompetition.org/2024/04/16/124… #antidoping #cleansport

Ostarine is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) & is prohibited in sport. In this study, scientists examined ostarine metabolism & identified markers in urine that could potentially help better detect ostarine use. mdpi.com/1422-0067/25/1… UnivPM #antidoping

In our latest #podcast episode, Sean Cottrell shares the story of how LawInSport came to be, how it has grown, and what he envisions for the future. We discuss resources they provide athletes, lawyers, and others, as well as challenges in #sport & #antidoping. cleancompetition.org/2024/08/20/132…

In this study, authors used #AI algorithms to identify potential #doping in female weightlifters' Athlete Performance Passports (APP). The APP could be paired with advanced AI algorithms to potentially increase the efficiency & objectivity of doping tests. frontiersin.org/journals/physi…

Exercise physiology is one of many research fields relevant for #antidoping science. Learn more about the field, factors that affect performance, and more in this article from American Physiological Society.

Please share! 📢 Our Careers in #AntiDoping Research webinar in partnership with American Physiological Society is coming up on October 8th! Register today to learn more about career options from our speakers Drs. Laura Lewis, Geoff Miller, and Jacob Bejder. us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regist… #cleansport

🚨 Reminder! 🚨 Applicants invited to submit a PCC Research Grant full application must submit all materials by Sunday, September 1st! Visit our website to learn more: cleancompetition.org/programs/grant… #antidoping #cleansport #science #research #grants #funding

New #podcast episode! Dr. Günter Gmeiner discusses his work leading the Austrian Doping Control Laboratory, current research projects in the lab, their previous PCC-funded research developing important reference materials, and more. cleancompetition.org/2024/09/03/133… #antidoping #cleansport

Interest in biological products is growing as new research is done & potential clinical uses are explored. But how does this impact #cleansport? USADA shares details on the prohibited status of exosome treatments & other biologics, as well as risks associated with them.

As new performance-enhancing substances are developed, it's critical to determine how they react, break down, and can be detected in common #antidoping analyses. Scientists added to our understanding of the behavior of the new SARM S42 (1) in this study. …iencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jm…

#Antidoping testing and analyses are critical for detecting and deterring use of prohibited substances. Learn more about the sample analysis process, atypical findings, adverse analytical findings, and more in this article from UK Anti-Doping. #cleansport

Reldesemtiv & Tirasemtiv are on WADA's Prohibited List, & scientists identified & characterized their respective metabolites & examined metabolism & elimination profiles. Microdosing was detectable in urine 24-72 hrs after administration. …iencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/dt… #antidoping

In case you missed it, you should definitely check out this podcast episode w/ Dr. Günter Gmeiner! He spoke about #antidoping work at the Seibersdorf Laboratories, prior PCC-funded research developing reference materials, exciting ongoing projects & more. cleancompetition.org/2024/09/03/133…
