Harvard doctor to headline The Workshop: CRN’s Day of Science

WASHINGTON — The Council for Responsible Nutrition on Tuesday announced Howard Sesso, associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and associate epidemiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, will be the keynote speaker at The Workshop: CRN’s Day of Science on Oct. 21.

 

Sesso, perhaps best known to the dietary supplement industry for his clinical trial research on the multivitamin and chronic disease, will share findings and analysis from his latest research project in this field, delving into secondary analyses from Physicians’ Health Study II. 

 

The Workshop will also feature sessions on trends in supplement use, nutritional prevention of cognitive decline, assessing initiatives on botanical research and interpreting the science on the safety of food ingredients. 

 

The Workshop concludes in the evening with a combined reception for attendees of that event and The Conference.
