About the event:
FAB Research hosted this opportunity to hear from some of the world’s leading experts on the role of nutrition in brain development and function, and its importance for mothers and infants.
Delegates heard the latest evidence on how the diets that mothers eat before and during pregnancy can have a lifelong impact on their children's health and development - and discovered what kinds of diets are likely to promote the best, and the worst, outcomes.
The programme for the day was designed for a multi-disciplinary audience of professionals, policy makers, researchers from academia and industry, and others concerned with the health, education and welfare of mothers, babies and young children. It gave all participants the chance to hear about and discuss the latest evidence and insights into the modern maternal diet and its lasting legacy.
What was discussed:
This event provided opportunities not only to learn from the latest research findings, but also to ask questions and get answers that may influence some of the decisions made every day.
