Nutrition Webinar on Aug 16

  • 1.  Nutrition Webinar on Aug 16

    Posted 08-07-2023 09:08:00 AM

    Please join us for the next session(s) in the AAMC Building Better Curriculum webinar series on Wednesday, August 16, 2023, at 1:00pm ET on "Developing Nutritional Competence in Medical Students and Residents." Register here. 

     

    In this session, we will examine the growing need to improve nutrition competence in medical education. We will discuss the national conversations about nutrition education, including the White House's Strategy on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health and the recent Summit on Medical Education in Nutrition, hosted by ACGME, AAMC, and AACOM. We will hear from educational leaders in this area, involving both undergraduate and graduate medical education, and learn about opportunities to include nutrition education within the curriculum for medical students and residents. 

    The presenters include:  

    • Chris D'Adamo, Ph.D. 
    • @Lisa Howley, Ph.D., M.Ed. 
    • Stutee Khandelwal MD, MPH 

    I am moderating, and I hope you will join us for this informative (and hopefully inspiring!) conversation about how we can improve nutrition education for physicians and future physicians!
