AAPSM "Your Foot and Ankle Sports Medicine Specialists" American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine (AAPSM)

Objectives

The American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine has a series of major objectives:

to provide and stimulate programs for research and education

to promote and encourage publication of research findings and other literature pertaining to podiatric sports medicine

to provide a consultative service for those persons engaged in sports medicine

to increase awareness of the medical profession, sports population, and general public to the profession of podiatric sports medicine and modalities available to those who participate in sports

to coordinate student chapters and to acquaint the podiatric medical student with the needs and demands placed upon athletes


These measures have proven successful over the years by reaching out to podiatrists, other practitioners, athletes, trainers, physical therapists, students and the public. It has been through all of these collective efforts that the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine has been able to realize its goals and continue to set new ones.

AAPSM Member Austin Chinn, DPM was selected as this year’s medical honoree for the 35th Annual Jingle Bell Run which raises money for the Arthritis Foundation.
This will be Dr. Chinn’s fourth year running the race. He said his biggest satisfaction in medicine is giving his patients a more active lifestyle. Working with physical therapists, he tailors a treatment plan for each patient. He notes that if a foot is not right, it can send the pain upward to the knee, hip, and back. A good first step in prevention is to make sure you are wearing the correct footwear for the sport you are in, with shock absorption and support from side to side and front to back. (Source PM News)

We need your help!! This year, students from SMU are collaborating with Dr. Tim Dutra on a research project examining Bio-Orthologics and Conservative Treatments for Lower-Limb Tendinopathies in Athletes. In April 2026, they plan to travel to Chandler, Arizona to present their work at the AAPSM Annual Conference. To help cover the costs associated with conference travel, they are launching a small crowdfunding campaign and reaching out to the communities that have supported our journeys so far.

Here is the link to our campaign:

The board members of the AAPSM SMU Student Chapter believe that participating in this conference will strengthen their program’s visibility, help them build meaningful industry connections, and allow them to bring back updated insights on gait analysis, rehabilitation, and performance optimization to share with their peers.

Thank you so much for considering this hopefully supporting students and the future of podiatric sports medicine.

Help Samuel Merritt University raise $6,500 for the project: Send Four CPM Students to the 2026 AAPSM Annual Conference. Your gift will make a difference!
