The grant program focuses on supporting students and professionals in sports medicine and exercise science through research and travel awards. It aims to invest in the future of these fields by providing financial assistance to those who meet eligibility criteria, helping them present their research at the ACSM Annual Meeting. Specifically, the Jack Wilmore Legacy Travel Award is offered to honor the memory of Jack H. Wilmore, Ph.D., supporting doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows with travel expenses for presenting research that aligns with or is influenced by Dr. Wilmore's work. This award underlines the program's dedication to both basic and applied science research within the realm of sports medicine and exercise science.
