As more and more children participate in a single sport on a year-round basis, these young athletes are increasingly at risk for overuse injuries. Additionally, concussions have become a major cause for concern among youth sports participants. Both of these issues and others will be addressed at Stony Brook Orthopaedic Associate's first annual Sports Medicine Symposium on May 20.
The educational program includes a full day agenda of lectures and panel discussions, and breakout sessions by physicians and sports medicine experts from Stony Brook Orthopaedics, the clinical practice of the Department of Orthopaedics at Stony Brook University School of Medicine. Co-Directors of the symposium are James Penna, M.D., Assistant Professor of Orthopaedics and Residency Program Director, and James M. Paci, M.D., Assistant Professor of Orthopaedics.
