Nutrition and the Science of Disease Prevention<https://ams.nyas.org/nyasssa/ecmssamsganalytics.click_through?p_mail_id=E316988A10970271B1C659820>
April 16, 2015
How can we leverage progress in nutritional science, genetics, computer science and behavioral economics to address the challenge of non-communicable disease? Join us for this one-day conference highlighting the connection between nutrition and the complex science of preventing disease.
This forum will focus on promotion of optimal metabolic health, building on input from several complementary disciplines, with ample time for discussion interaction and networking. Speakers will discuss:
* The basic science of optimal metabolic health with a focus on the microbiome and gene-diet interactions
* Epidemiological evidence in nutrition to define better targets and better interventions
* How nutrition, from pharma to lifestyle, can build on systems science to address complex issues.
* Featuring Dr Frank Hu, Professor of Nutrition and Epidemiology, Harvard School of Public Health.
Enjoy our Early-Bird Discount by registering before February 28, 2015!

Recent Podcast:
Food as Medicine: Nutrition and Global Health<https://ams.nyas.org/nyasssa/ecmssamsganalytics.click_through?p_mail_id=E316988A10970271B1C659823>
In the second of a two-part series, experts look at the links between health and nutrition. They examine everything from how nutrition impacts hospital stays, to cancer and aging, to developing food science innovations, and improving diet.
Micronutrients: Supplementation, Fortification, and Beyond<https://ams.nyas.org/nyasssa/ecmssamsganalytics.click_through?p_mail_id=E316988A10970271B1C659824>
In this podcast series, the many partners of The Sackler Institute for Nutrition Science offer perspective on their work to better understand human nutrition, and to find new and better ways of feeding the world. For this episode, experts from DSM, DuPont, Pepsico, Nestlé, Pfizer, the Food Fortification Initiative, the Mathile Institute, and Ajinomoto discuss the many ways people are solving the problem of supplying people everywhere with adequate vitamins and minerals.

Shaping the Developing Brain
Fifth Annual Aspen Brain Forum<https://ams.nyas.org/nyasssa/ecmssamsganalytics.click_through?p_mail_id=E316988A10970271B1C659830>
In early life, massive changes take place in the connectivity and plasticity of the brain that determine the future success of a child. This eBriefing explores cognitive neuroscience research on early development; social, family, and nutritional factors that cause lasting changes in the brain; and intervention, education, and policy initiatives to help at-risk children.
