Welcome to the official web site of the North American Society for Pediatric Exercise Medicine (NASPEM). Formed in 1985, NASPEM's membership is comprised of medical doctors, researchers and students interested in pediatric exercise. Our mission is to promote exercise science, physical activity and fitness in the health and medical care of children and adolescents. The mission is achieved through: (1) our biennial meeting; (2) the publication of Pediatric Exercise Science; (3) collaborative research initiatives; (4) the opportunity to network with pediatric exercise scientists from around the world; (5) the availability of student aid to attend meetings and present research; and (6) maintaining the NASPEM training programs database.

If you are interested in joining NASPEM, you can you use the on-line membership application contained in this web site, contact Human Kinetics (1-800-747-4457) or contact one of the Board members directly. Questions about NASPEM should be directed to the President.
