Improving performance through science

The Sylvan Adams Sports Institute was established in 2018 at Tel Aviv University and its main focus is on endurance sports, such as swimming, running, cycling, and triathlon. The integration of the Institute within the Tel Aviv University campus allows us to provide the ideal environment for testing and training, combined with a research facility, all in the service of improving athletic performance.

We are the first and only institute of this kind in Israel and one of very few similar institutes in the world, where academics at the peak of their careers can work simultaneously with athletes and coaches, and contribute to their knowledge and research from a diverse range of academic disciplines. Our scientists are connected to the heart of the latest findings in their fields, working at the best research university in Israel.
