Joint Annual Scientific Meeting of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand and the Nutrition Society of Australia
The Joint Annual Scientific Meeting of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand and the Nutrition Society of Australia will be held in Wellington, New Zealand at Te Papa, the Museum of New Zealand, located on the Wellington waterfront.
The theme of this year's conference is 'Past, Present, Future: 100 years of Nutrition ' which will include a plenary session on nutrition in history with a focus on war and the military (in recognition of the 100th anniversary of Gallipoli), as well as plenary sessions on topical issues in food, nutrition and health of concern now and in the future. In addition to the plenary sessions, there will be numerous concurrent sessions of short oral talks, invited speakers giving the Dairy Australia Lecture and the Muriel Bell Lecture, and two poster sessions. We will also be offering a selection of optional satellite sessions including the Student Masterclass, Evaluating the Evidence, and the sponsored Young Investigator Lunch where students and post-doctoral fellows can network with senior scientists.
