NNEdPro Summer School 2019 & Save the Date 2020

Reflecting on Summer School in Applied Human Nutrition 2019

This year, over 5 days from 5-9 July, 24 students from over 10 countries across the globe gained a Foundation certificate in Applied Human Nutrition together hosted at Homerton College, Cambridge University.

The course covered a diverse range of topics as wide as their backgrounds to immerse themselves in health and biological sciences and solved into contemporary and cutting-edge subjects.

These included:

• Basic Concepts in Human Nutrition

• Nutrition Research Methods

• Nutrition in Disease Prevention

• Nutrition in Healthcare

• Nutrition Public Health and Policy

With Cambridge Institute of Continuing Education, this year’s edition of the Summer School was co-organised with the School of Advanced Studies on Food and Nutrition of the University of Parma, Italy, and had a contingent of internationally recognised lecturers in Cambridge for the occasion. Thank you to the faculty for taking the time out to teach the students.

The course was accredited by the Royal College of Physicians and the Royal Society for Biology.
