UT Southwestern Obesity Alliance Seminar Series on Nutrition, Metabolism and Obesity

The UT Southwestern Obesity Alliance's weekly conferences on metabolism, nutrition, and obesity are being held at noon on Thursday.  (Please check the location with our weekly invitation.)

The conference will emphasize human and translation research, but it is expected that all aspects of metabolism and nutrition as related to obesity will be considered. To the extent possible we will also invite out-of-town speakers. We hope that attendees of the conference will broadly represent the UT Southwestern faculty.
