Meeting site: https://nutrition.org/n24/
Registration site: https://www.mcievents.com/nutrition2024/ Emerging Technology for Improved Diet and Microbiome Analysis ExpandMonday, July 1, from 4:00-5:30 p.m. Central Time
In partnership with the Nutritional Microbiology GEM.
Human research examining how diet and gut microbiome interactions influence health is underway globally in the form of large-scale cohort studies as well as smaller dietary interventions. Researchers working to identify new diet-gut microbe relationships face a lack of resolution and a high degree of variability in both dietary and microbial data.
New tools for dietary data collection, and gut microbiota analysis are rapidly being developed and existing tools adapted to help address these issues. As this field rapidly moves forward, we need to understand how to best apply new methods across varied study groups to obtain the most accurate and precise results possible.
By convening speakers with expertise in diet assessment, gut microbiology, and computational biology this symposium will address how novel methods in diet assessment, microbiology and machine learning/AI are being applied to advance understanding of diet-microbiome interactions in health and disease.

Past Events
Fortification Workshop: New Findings and Implications for Vitamins and Minerals
June 21, 2012
Washington, DC, USA
In an environment of over-consumption, it is of great interest that Americans simultaneously fail to meet the Dietary References Intakes (DRIs) for many nutrients. Fortification is a way to supplement intakes of the population at large without having to rely on consumer choice. The Forticiation Committee’s workshop will provide attendees with an improved understanding of the value of fortification and the success of current fortification efforts and practices. Additionally the workshop will address the potential future role of fortification in nutrient adequacy, which includes benefits and risks.
