A sports medicine doctor on ‘winning health strategies’ at Arab Health 2017

An esteemed sports medicine doctor working for over a decade at FC Barcelona will present on ‘winning health strategies’ at Arab Health 2017.

Speaking on behalf of the Harley Street Medical Area’s Isokinetic Clinic, Dr Daniel Medina MD will present his experience at the club and how he used ‘big data’ and data science to create a winning team.

The presentation will consider the epidemiology of injuries across all sports at FC Barcelona and the continuing education programmes, research projects and approach to innovation.

Personalised player monitoring and nutrition and predictive analytics, decision-making algorithms and understanding of relational complexity will also be highlighted throughout the presentation.

Dr Medina said: “It is an honour to be speaking at the Arab Health Congress about my experiences at FC Barcelona. Innovation is at the heart of our work at FC Barcelona and in particular FCB Universitas and our Sports Innovation Hub project.

“We wish to share the knowledge we have acquired over the years in various fields, such as medical services and performance, in an external way, with other world-renowned organisations, institutions, academic institutions and technology companies through forums, conferences, educational programmes, and master’s degrees or developing research and courses, both face-to-face and online.”
