Program Highlights

Presentation Speakers/Topics include:

The Texas Human Nutrition Conference has been held each year since 1973 and seeks to provide continuing education in timely nutritional topics to Texans. Attendees include undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff from Texas A&M University as well as surrounding colleges and universities. Many health professionals are served by the conference as several hundred registered dietitians and county Extension specialists attend and disseminate nutrition information throughout Texas. Thus, the conference impacts several different aspects of the basic research and the translation of basic science into the practice of nutrition, dietetics and food science in Texas. Speakers are encouraged to emphasize the application and potential impact of their work within the practice of nutrition, public health, policy and food product availability as appropriate.


Conference Theme:
"Slippery Slope to Health: Adding Good Fat Back to the Diet"
