Dr. Miriam Guerra Balic Presents JIDP Research at ACSM 2025 in Atlanta
We are proud to share that our colleague, Dr. Miriam Guerra Balic, took part in the 2025 Annual Meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) in Atlanta, where she presented our project with an outstanding poster presentation.
Her research focuses on quality of life and fitness levels in adolescents who participate in adapted judo sessions for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
The presentation was a great success and sparked significant interest among attendees. Congratulations, Miriam!
At Team JIDP, we continue to push forward with our mission to promote a more inclusive and transformative sport
The spotlight focus for this years ACSM was,
The Global Power of Movement
“ACSM’s vision is to “extend and enrich lives through the power of movement” and ACSM believes striving towards a powerful vision requires many elements including key partnerships. ACSM’s strategic partners in this work include membership in the Physical Activity Alliance whose mission is to lead efforts to create, support, and advocate policy and system changes that enable all Americans to enjoy physically active lives and in the Global Alliance for the Promotion of Physical Activity which supports physical activity for the entire population. In support of these critical efforts to make the world a healthier, more active place, ACSM’s 2025 Annual Meeting Spotlight will focus on the intersection between basic, applied and/or clinical science as it relates to their collective impact on the effects of movement on individuals, populations and society.”
