17–18 May 2017, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA
Conference on Food and Nutritional Metabolomics for Health
The Ohio State University’s Foods for Health Discovery Theme will host its inaugural Conference on Food and Nutritional Metabolomics in conjunction with the 14th Annual Ohio Mass Spectrometry Symposium on 17–18 May, 2017.
Academic and industrial researchers will present findings, share information, and spark new collaborations in the rapidly advancing fields of metabolomics and mass spectrometry. The conference agenda includes keynote speakers (Dr. Gary Patti of Washington University in St. Louis and Dr. Robert Gerszten of Harvard University), invited speakers (including Ohio State's Dr. Rafael Bruschweiler, Dr. Devin Peterson, and Dr. Ewy Mathé), and oral and poster presentations in the following topic areas:
- Metabolomics technology as a tool to determine dietary impact on metabolic phenotypes as related to health
- Food chemistry
- Food quality and flavor
- Proteomics
- Nucleic acids
- Bioinformatics
- Recent advances in mass spectrometric instrumentation and analyses
An evening reception and opportunities for industry-academic discussions will foster networking.
The conference will be preceded by An Introduction to Metabolomics, a compelling workshop presented by OSU experts on the basic principles and applications of metabolomics technology.
