  2. To provide education and information to athletes, physicians, the general public and the media about DVT and PE in athletes;<\/li>\n
  3. To perform and support clinical and basic research that addresses open questions about cause, prevention and best management of DVT and PE in athletes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
