Welcome to the fourth edition of Athlete Corner!

As usual, the issue will kick off with some WADA updates, starting with the revised Athletes’ Anti-Doping Rights Act, then moving to a much-requested clarification on overnight testing, and ending with an important update on a new approach to safeguarding the independence of testing at the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Here’s a quick look at what else you will find in this issue:

• Highlights from the Americas Regional Symposium in Lima, Peru, and a welcome to new athlete representatives joining from across the region.
• A behind the scenes look at how athletes shaped the development of the new Athlete Center.
• Where we’ve been lately and where you can find us in the coming weeks, from the Asian Games and Asian Para Games to the Youth Olympic Games and the Panam Sports Athlete Forum.
• Results from our testing and independence survey, based on over 200 responses from athletes around the world.
• A word from the Athlete Council (AC), including a recap of their in-person meeting in Montreal, their new three-year Action Plan, and a welcome to new Council member Dr. Guillermina Barat.

We hope you find this issue useful, and as always, we look forward to hearing from you.
