Opening Session and Presidential Symposium - Precision Nutrition: New Scientific Horizons (On Demand Collection)
The NIH Strategic Plan for Nutrition Research, along with NIH Common Fund’s Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program, are bringing unprecedented opportunities to the nutrition science community.
Building on recent advances in biomedical science including artificial intelligence and microbiome research and attracting new scientific disciplines, these initiatives will foster innovations and collaborations over the next 10 years and beyond.
ASN is at the forefront with its members driving core components of these efforts. The society is committed to bringing the latest content on these important issues to the global nutrition community through its scholarly publishing portfolio and knowledge activities.
The 2022 Presidential Symposium explores new scientific horizons in the precision nutrition field with scientific leaders in the U.S. and abroad.
This course is included in the NUTRITION 2022 LIVE ONLINE On Demand Collection.
