PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT We will convene the 4th annual Interdisciplinary Nutrition Sciences Symposium (INSS), entitled “Obesity and the Brain Across the Life Course.” This conference will address the critical need to establish rigorous interdisciplinary and translational approaches in the context of nutrition and obesity to effectively prevent and treat a variety of physiological outcomes as they relate to aging and the brain. Interactive discussions will enable early career investigators and faculty, including those underrepresented in science, to engage with senior investigators. These valuable experiences will provide early career investigators and trainees with a foundation upon which they will be able to contribute to the next generation of successful aging, obesity, and brain research. Confirmed and invited speakers will include leading national academic scientists from diverse backgrounds with expertise in aging biology, translational obesity, and nutrition/diet research. The five interactive sessions are organized to facilitate and encourage integration across disciplines, synthesize knowledge, and generate new ideas in selected areas of aging, obesity, and brain research. A major goal of the conference is to build upon the dialogue in our previous successful symposia to develop best practices for translational and mechanistic science and to generate ideas for proposals and collaborative projects. We will feature a networking lunch to encourage discussion across scientific approaches, seniority, and industry/academia relationships. We will also hold an early career lunch and workshop to allow opportunities for detailed discussions around mentoring and career development. Rigorous evaluation of the symposium will involve summative assessment activities through online surveys conducted via the conference website to assess what participants learned, what was effective, and what needs improvement. An anticipated deliverable of INSS 2023 is a scientific paper geared towards a major aging journal on how to translate findings from basic and clinical studies toward improving cognitive outcomes in aged adults with obesity based on rigorous evidence. We will promote the symposium broadly via national societies, including The American Geriatrics Society, The Gerontological Society of America, Obesity Medicine Association, American Society for Nutrition, The Obesity Society, Translational Geroscience Network. Additionally, the symposium will be promoted through the University of North Carolina Center for Aging and Health networks, and NIH-funded centers such as the Nutrition Obesity Research Centers, Alzheimer’s Disease Research Centers, and others. We anticipate that attendees will span the diverse fields of gerontology, geriatrics, cognition, physiology, biochemistry, nutrition, and more. We anticipate attendance of approximately 100 scientists, based on the success of the prior three symposia and the outstanding leading keynote speakers who have agreed to attend.

项目总结/摘要 我们将召开第四届年度跨学科营养科学研讨会（INSS），题为“肥胖与营养”。 《大脑穿越生命历程》这次会议将解决建立严格的跨学科的迫切需要， 在营养和肥胖的背景下，有效预防和治疗各种 生理结果，因为它们与衰老和大脑有关。互动讨论将使早期的职业生涯 研究人员和教师，包括那些在科学界代表性不足的人，与高级研究人员接触。 这些宝贵的经验将为早期职业调查人员和学员提供一个基础， 他们将能够为下一代成功的衰老，肥胖和大脑研究做出贡献。证实 受邀演讲者将包括来自不同背景的领先的国家学术科学家， 衰老生物学、转化性肥胖和营养/饮食研究。五场互动会议的组织目的是 促进和鼓励跨学科的整合，综合知识，并产生新的想法， 衰老、肥胖和大脑研究的选定领域。会议的一个主要目标是在对话的基础上 在我们以前成功的研讨会上，我们为转化科学和机械科学制定了最佳实践， 为提案和合作项目产生想法。我们将举办一个网络午餐，以鼓励 跨科学方法、资历和行业/学术界关系的讨论。我们还将举办一个 早期职业午餐和研讨会，以便有机会围绕指导和职业生涯进行详细讨论 发展严格评估的专题讨论会将涉及总结性评估活动，通过在线 通过会议网站进行的调查，以评估与会者学到了什么，什么是有效的， 需要改进。INSS 2023的预期交付成果是一篇面向重大老龄化的科学论文 关于如何将基础和临床研究结果转化为改善老年人认知结果的期刊 成年肥胖症患者的数据我们将通过各国学会广泛宣传研讨会， 包括美国老年医学会，美国老年医学会，肥胖医学 协会，美国营养学会，肥胖学会，翻译老年科学网络。 此外，研讨会将通过北卡罗来纳州大学老龄化中心和 健康网络和NIH资助的中心，例如营养肥胖研究中心、阿尔茨海默病 研究中心及其他。我们预计，与会者将跨越老年学，老年医学， 认知、生理、生物化学、营养等等。我们预计将有大约100人参加 科学家，在前三次研讨会的成功和杰出的主要基调发言人， 同意出席
