Ryan Roe, PA-C, ATC is one of two full-time medical providers caring for nearly 700 student-athletes across 20 varsity sports at the University of Texas at Austin, currently the top-performing collegiate athletics program in the country.

You might spot him on the Texas sideline in an SEC football game and he's the person the athletes come to for health and wellness.

We cover:

• A day in the life caring for nearly 700 elite college athletes
• The multi-disciplinary integrated care model at UT Athletics: physicians, PAs, athletic trainers, dietitians, mental health providers, sports scientists, physical therapists
• Why this model works, and what it would take to bring it into everyday healthcare
• Concussions: how evaluation and return-to-play have evolved, and what the NFL research is teaching college programs
• RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) in female athletes, and why "not having a period" was normalized for far too long
• Hormonal contraception in athletes and how it complicates the RED-S workup
• Mental health, the NIL era, and the pressure on 17- to 25-year-olds performing under the world's cameras
• Sports science: catapult load monitoring, force plates, DEXA, wearables
• Recovery science: cold plunge, sauna, red light, hyperbaric, contrast baths, and what the evidence supports
• Supplements, NCAA regulations, and what's off-limits even when it's over-the-counter
• Regenerative medicine: PRP, PPP, stem cells, BMAC, peptides, and where the wild west begins
• “Back to basics” are sometimes the most important tools
