Nutrients Webinar | Advances in Grain Nutrition, Omics and Cardiometabolic Health, 4 August 2023

Grains are widely consumed all over the world as they provide calories, macronutrients, micronutrients, dietary fibers, minerals, and plenty of phytochemicals that may have prolonged effects on human metabolism. High-throughput omics techniques enable a comprehensive understanding of the biological perturbations associated with dietary intake and other environmental exposures. A combination of traditional populations studies, such as cohorts, and RCTs, with multi-omics measurement, provide great opportunities to advance our knowledge of how the consumption of different grains affects human health. With particular interest in the effects of whole grains, refined grains, or staple foods, we are very excited to have invited outstanding pioneer scientists in the fields of nutritional epidemiology, precision nutrition, and multi-omics studies to this webinar to share their research output with the nutrition academic communities. The duration of these presentations will be 20 minutes each, after which a Q&A session will be held.

Date: 4 August 2023 at 4:00 p.m. CST Asia | 10:00 a.m. CEST
