Doha: In parallel with the 24th Men’s Handball World Championship, currently being held here, Aspetar will host the Conference on New Sports Medicine Concepts in Handball at the Aspire Ladies Sports Hall this weekend.
To ensure facilitation of an academic and clinical exchange on vital topics within this field, Aspetar’s scientific committee and the International Handball Federation’s (IHF) medical committee have put together a cutting-edge programme for the attendees, including a distinguished panel of professional and world renowned speakers, led by Dr Hassan Mustafa, President of the IHF.
Dr Khalifa Al Kuwari (pictured), Director General, Aspetar, said: “This event has added to Aspetar’s series of initiatives aimed at developing new sports medicine treatments.  By organising this international conference we are contributing to the search for knowledge and facilitating the exchange of experiences between specialists from different countries in the field of sports medicine, thereby helping to improve the methods of prevention and the treatment of handball players”.       THE PENINSULA
