Sports Medicine Journal Club

The Rutgers SHP Sports Medicine Journal Club aims to cultivate and nurture the minds of fellow students who have the passion and curiosity to pursue a career in sports medicine. By discussing evidence in current literature, we aim to embody best practice to serve our patients at the highest capacity.

Our goal is to educate, but also give rise to new questions that guide us in our search to learn more and fuel our curiosity. We hope to create a path that guides fellow students toward sports physical therapy and bring light to what that truly means.
