Dietary Effects on Gut Signaling
UC San Diego is at the cutting edge of basic and translational research in gastroenterology and hepatology. As part of our efforts to advance the science and clinical management of gastrointestinal disease, we are pleased to announce that our 2016 annual gastrointestinal research symposium will focus on dietary effects on gut signaling.
We have secured participation of internationally renowned experts from diverse disciplines to cover issues related to phenotyping patients, creating bioprofile and refined animal models used for research related to inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease and other conditions. Our target audience includes translational investigators in gastroenterology and hepatology as well as basic scientists.
