Gut Health, Microbiota & Probiotics Throughout the Lifespan: Dietary Influences

  • Event
  • Wednesday, October 10, 2018 - Thursday, October 11, 2018
Details:

My name is Christina Badaracco and I am working with Dr. Allan Walker from Massachusetts General Hospital to plan the upcoming symposium entitled, “Gut Health, Microbiota & Probiotics Throughout the Lifespan: Dietary Influences," on October 10-11, 2018 at Harvard Medical School. Many of the world’s top experts will discuss the latest research on the relationship between the microbiome, nutrition, and health. We are inviting leaders in the health field who publish information related to nutrition and the microbiome to participate and help to share this information with their respective audiences. We would like to invite a limited number of RDs in the area who are active in media to attend, take part in discussions with our speakers, and then disseminate this up-to-date information. Attendees may be invited to additional conference events, such as a VIP dinner, as well. This will be an unparalleled opportunity to learn the latest research about topics such as fermented foods, probiotics, childhood obesity, cardiovascular disease, and more and then share with your professional and public audiences. Please email or call me if you would like to discuss this further. Registration is free, so all are welcome and encouraged to come as audience members, as well.
