The Institute of Sports Medicine and Science of CONI (IMSS) took part for the first time in the 2025 Post-Olympic Workshop (POW 2025). From Monday 26 to Wednesday 28 May, the European base of the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) in Gavirate (Varese) hosted the event organised by the Institute for Applied Training Science (IAT) in Leipzig, which brought together leading international sports science institutes and other organisations involved in elite sport from around the world.

For the IMSS, represented by Director Giampiero Pastore along with Valerio Carlozzi and Dario Dalla Vedova (Sports Science), the workshop was an opportunity to present its ongoing work, in collaboration with various National Sports Federations, in preparation for the upcoming Winter and Summer Olympic Games. Topics of shared interest were presented and discussed, including approaches to technical, scientific and financial support for Olympic athletes; athlete development pathways from junior levels to elite performance and into early retirement; dual career management; Olympic team logistics and coordination; analysis of international medal trends; and aspects of psychology, nutrition, injury prevention, and operational planning.
