Dear researchers,
We are pleased to announce the Third Electronic Conference sponsored by Nutrients. The focus of this conference will be on Precision Nutrition and Nutrigenomics. Precision Nutrition, a novel individualized approach, considers the genetic and epigenetic information as well as age, gender, lifestyle, gut microbiota, and health status conditions to design the best dietary approaches for an individual in order to achieve optimal health and ageing, disease prevention and improved exercise performance. This conference will provide updated information and novel findings on the role of epigenetics, genetic polymorphisms and the microbiota in Precision Nutrition as well as the use of “omics” as necessary tools to discover unsuspected interactions and interpret the information.
Participants will have the opportunity to examine, explore and actively participate in current issues and advances in these areas. We hope to facilitate discussions and exchanges within the community. This event will solely be an online proceeding that allows participation from all over the world with no concerns about travel and related expenditures. This type of conference is particularly appropriate and useful because of the discussion on new findings on Precision Nutrition and Nutrigenomics . An electronic conference provides a platform for rapid and direct exchanges about the latest research findings and novel ideas. The participation in, as well as the “attendance” of, this online conference is free of charge.

Meet Our Speakers
Dr. Alex Mira
Genomics and Health Department, Foundation for the Promotion of Health and Biomedical Research (FISABIO), 46020 Valencia, Spain;
Alex Mira is the head of the Oral Microbiome Lab at the FISABIO Institute in Valencia, Spain. After a PhD at Oxford University and postdoctoral stays in the USA and Sweden, returned to Spain to focus on the study of the human microbiome, especially in the oral cavity. His team performed the first metagenome and metatranscriptome of the human dental plaque, through which he discovered the new species Streptococcus dentisani, currently being developed as an oral probiotic. After working on the microbial etiology of oral diseases, he is currently focused on studying the systemic effect of the oral microbiome, ranging from colorectal cancer to cardiovascular or antidiabetic effects.
