Get you tickets for the 3rd NED Science Forum

The NED Science Forum is back for 2026. Hosted by the NED Editorial Board and supported by BANT, the NED Science Forum is open to BANT members and healthcare professionals with an interest in nutrition science.

NED SCIENCE FORUM
Realising the Vision of Preventative Health – Translating Genetic and Wearable DataFor preventative health to be realised in the UK, as set out in the NHS 10-year plan, it needs to put nutrition and lifestyle at its core. What role does genetic and wearable data have to play in achieving the preventative health ambitions? Join us for presentation, debate and discussion on preventative health and how nutrition professionals are harnessing the power of genetics and wearable data to inform their science-based decision making and transforming lives.
