CANCELLED: Food for Thought: Nutrition decisions

The Food for Thought series has been cancelled for 2020, but the topic and speakers will be rescheduled for 2021. For more information or to be added to our events email list, please contact the events team

 

Nutrition advice bombards us from all angles and it can be hard to sort the essentials from dodgy dietary hacks.

 

Some researchers are honing in on the individual to develop personalised nutrition approaches. In this installment of Food for Thought, we will explore the promise of personalised nutrition. Should what you eat be determined by your genes? And is there still value in general, population-level nutrition guidelines?

 

Catch up on the latest in nutrition science with Professor Clare Collins and Dr Katherine Livingstone.

 

Clare is a professor of nutrition and dietetics at the University of Newcastle. Her innovative research creates new technologies to evaluate nutrition and dietary intake and investigates how food patterns can enhance health of all people, including those with chronic health conditions.

 

Katherine is an NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow at Deakin University. Her research interests include developing personalised nutrition approaches to understand dietary patterns, quality and behaviour. She was involved in one of the world’s largest personalised nutrition studies, Food4Me.

This is the fifth event in a six-part series. Throughout this series, experts from around Australia, will cover a range of topics relating to food and nutrition, including food waste, gut health, Australian native foods, edible insects, GM foods, the future of nutrition and more!
