Top-class sport is hardly conceivable today without science. The German Ski Association is now relying on the expertise of researchers from Chemnitz.

The Chemnitz University of Technology is to become a scientific partner of the German Ski Association. The Professorship of Sports Medicine and Sports Therapy at the Institute of Applied Human Movement Sciences will work with the association to further develop Nordic skiing and cross-country skiing in particular, as the university announced. The ski association will contribute financially to the scientific staff. Specifically, this involves research projects in the areas of training science, performance and competition diagnostics as well as the use of technologies in everyday training.

The first joint projects are set to begin this fall. The projects will be led and coordinated primarily by Jacob Walther, who has been a research associate at the Chair of Sports Medicine and Sports Therapy since July of this year and has many years of experience as a U23 national coach in Norway.
