Dr. Tom Werner is used to a game in which the playing field keeps changing. A recently retired professor of chemistry at Union College, Werner developed a course called “Chemistry and Athletic Performance†with the help of Dr. Don Catlin, the world-renowned director of the UCLA Olympic Analytical Lab.
“There’s always new versions of drugs that come out and new ways for athletes to take the drugs,†Werner said. “An example is HGH (human growth hormone). There’s no good way to analyze for it, and they often take it as a cocktail with steroids at levels that are difficult to detect.â€
Werner was inspired to start his “Chemistry and Athletic Performance†course by the work of Catlin, specifically in the federal case against Victor Conte and his Bay Area Laboratory Co-operative (BALCO), which has become synonymous with rampant drug cheating at the highest level of sports.
