Advancing Nutrition Research to Promote Respiratory Health in Adults Workshop (virtual)

This workshop will address the current state of science regarding nutrition and diet in respiratory health and diseases and identify critical research gaps, challenges, and opportunities. Participants will hear from multidisciplinary researchers and discuss methods to advance nutrition research to promote respiratory health and to aid in the prevention and management of disease in adults with chronic respiratory conditions.

Date: September 19 & 20 (10 a.m.-4 p.m. ET)

Workshop Goals and Objectives:

• Leverage large population cohort studies and epidemiological evidence to understand the impact of nutrition and diet on the prevalence and outcomes of respiratory diseases in adults, with a focus on vulnerable populations.
• Understand the impact of climate change on food systems and food security through a global respiratory health lens.
• Discuss the mechanisms through which nutrition and diet influence respiratory health and diseases.
• Examine emerging precision measures of nutrition and diet in epidemiological and interventional studies of respiratory health and diseases.
• Discuss the efficacy, implementation, and dissemination of dietary and nutritional interventions for respiratory disease prevention and control.
