Nutrition and Non-Communicable Diseases Interest Group

The Nutrition and Non-Communicable Diseases Interest Group meets on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays during the academic year and is open to all interested trainees and faculty members.

The purpose of these meetings is to provide a forum for all interested trainees and faculty across the university to discuss nutritional factors related to risk of non-communicable diseases in the form of critiquing recent journal articles, presenting research-in-progress, discussing new research ideas, and hosting guest speakers from outside the university. The first session of the academic year will be a lightening round of brief overviews of ongoing research by faculty to facilitate collaborations and initiate trainee projects.      

2nd and 4th Wednesdays, September through May, 10:00 - 11:00 AM

Open to any interested trainee or faculty member.

Please contact the staff coordinator for the Zoom meeting information and to be added to the listserv. Please contact the faculty coordinator with presentation topics.
