1st Annual Conference on Food and Nutritional Metabolomics for Health AND The 14th Annual Ohio Mass Spectrometry Symposium

May 17, 2017 through May 18, 2017 (All day)
Location: 
Ohio Union, 1739 N. High St., Columbus, OH 43210

The Ohio State University’s Foods for Health Discovery Theme is partnering with the Metabolomics Society and the scientific journal, Metabolites, to host its inaugural Conference on Food and Nutritional Metabolomics in conjunction with the 14th Annual Ohio Mass Spectrometry Symposium on May 17-18, 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
