Since 1970 every four years the International Symposium on Biomechanics and Medicine in Swimming has been arranged. The presentations held at these symposia and dealing with topics around swimming (including diving, water polo, synchronized swimming and others) have been published afterwards.

This database, which has been developed by the Institute for Applied Training Science in co-operation with the Steering Group of the Biomechanics & Swimming symposia, gives quick and easy access to the 1,264 articles published yet. The database is searchable with the help of different search options.
