Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Board of directors of ISNN the Scientific Planning Committee and members of the University of Navarra Organizing Committees, it is my pleasure to invite you to the 4th Congress of the International Society of Nutrigenetics/Nutrigenomics (ISNN) “From reference intakes to personalized nutrition” which will be held in Pamplona (Navarra), Spain, in November 18-20, 2010.
The Congress is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research and translational developments in Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics. This rapidly moving field in personalized nutrition overlaps with all aspects of health and/or disease, including normal growth/development/maintenance, obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. It is also focused on fundamental interrelationships between food components and key cellular processes including inflammation, hormonal regulation, and cell division/differentiation. Indeed, nutrigenetics, nutrigenomics and epigenomics issues represent the future for both primary and secondary disease prevention and treatment.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to national and regional government agencies and to manufacturing industries (food, pharmaceutical and technological companies), for their generous support that is making this Congress possible. We also wish to express special thanks to Iberia Viajes for their excellent arrangements in all aspects of the Congress organization, and to our dedicated staff, colleagues, and friends for their untiring help, support and advice in planning and arranging this meeting.
It is also worth mentioning that we are planning that the posters presented at the ISNN 2010 are going to be published in a regular issue of the Journal of Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics.
We hope that you will join us at the Congress to foster a creative exchange of ideas and to build/enhance interactions with colleagues from many different countries. I am convinced it will be a rewarding experience for all. Please, plan to join us at this very beautiful and exciting city of Pamplona in November 2010, the town where bulls run freely in the streets five minutes a day during a week in the summer season.
Warmest Regards
Prof. J.A. Martínez
Congress Chairman |
