From science to understanding
Civilised discussion and debate is an integral part of the scientific process. While this can be achieved through publications in scientific journals, regular attendance at scientific conferences is also an important means of communication with colleagues.
People with certain health conditions like diabetes also like to be kept informed of the latest developments and issues in nutrition science, and to have the opportunity to ask questions through consumer expo’s and forums.
Here are some examples from the past few years:
