This discussion on performance-enhancing drugs in sport will consider how they work, how they are developed, how they can be masked and detected, the harms they do, and more. 

Bruce Wardrop, lecturer at SETU Waterford, and course leader of the BSc in Sport and Exercise Science, formerly served as lead sports physiologist with Paralympics Ireland. He is currently completing a PhD investigating the cellular mechanisms of angiogenesis in trained vs untrained individuals. Bruce hosts a podcast on behalf the Irish Sport and Exercise Science Association. 

Elizabeth Egan has a background in exercise physiology, having completed a PhD looking at bone mineral density in female athletes, and now works as a life coach with high performance sportspeople. She has published two books, one an altitude training guide for endurance athletes, the other on personal development coaching in sport. She is a UK Anti-doping Clean Sport educator, and the Clean Sport lead at University of East London. An active athlete herself, Elizabeth runs www.trackathletes.ie - ‘the ultimate resource for fans of Irish athletics’ - with Olympian Louise Shanahan.

With the so-called Enhanced Games taking place in Las Vegas in May, it has never been more timely to take a serious look at the issue of drugs in sport. The event claims to ‘celebrate human potential through safe, transparent enhancement’ and, presumably, show how much faster, higher, stronger performances can be with the help of drugs.
