On behalf of the Research Center in Sports Sciences, Health Sciences and Human Development – CIDESD, we would like to hereby extend a warm welcome to join us at our International Congress - CIDESD 2019.
 
CIDESD 2019 aims to provide a valuable opportunity for delegates to share, learn from and contribute to the most recent advances in Sports, Exercise and Health Sciences in a refreshing professional and social scenery.
 
We have put together a programme that includes plenary sessions delivered by leading experts in the field, free communication sessions organised across our key research areas, industry exhibition, research projects showcase, and plenty of networking opportunities! Additionally, we will offer a set of thoughtfully designed pre-congress workshops.
 
Don’t miss the opportunity to explore our region and visit the unique city of Porto and please join us at the congress dinner and after-party. We also encourage you to be active during these days so please feel free to use our fitness studio and running track.
 
Excited and looking forward to meeting you here!
