SUMMARY:Seminar - Food marketing regulation and childhood obesity prevention - Professor Amandine Garde
DESCRIPTION:All are invited to the CEDAR/MRC Epidemiology Seminar: \nFood marketing regulation and childhood obesity prevention \n\nProfessor Amandine Garde\, Law & Non-Communicable Diseases\, School of Law and Social Justice\, University of Liverpool. \n\n\nMRC Epidemiology Unit Meeting Rooms 1&2\, Level 3\, Institute of Metabolic Science\, Cambridge Biomedical Campus\nAbstract\nOver the last twenty years\, a range of studies have established that food marketing affects children’s consumption preferences and purchase requests. However\, in stark contrast with what has happened for tobacco products\, public authorities in the UK\, in Europe and beyond have been extremely reluctant to restrict the marketing of food high in fat\, sugar and salt\, preferring to rely instead on the self-regulatory commitments or ‘pledges’ of food industry operators. This reluctance to impose legally binding restrictions on food marketing\, particularly to children\, raises a range of questions which this talk proposes to focus on. \nAbout Professor Amandine Garde\nAmandine Garde is Professor of Law and founding director of the new Law & NCD Research Unit at the University of Liverpool. Her expertise lies in the role that legal instruments can play in preventing obesity and other non-communicable diseases. She regularly advises international organisations\, NGOs and governments worldwide\, and was a member of the Ad Hoc Working Group on Science and Evidence to the WHO Commission on Ending Childhood Obesity. \nBefore moving to Liverpool in 2013\, she lectured at King’s College London (where she obtained her PhD)\, at the Faculty of Law in Cambridge (where she was also a Fellow of Selwyn College)\, at the University of Exeter and at Durham University. She was a postdoctoral fellow at the European University Institute in Florence in 2005-2006 and is also a qualified solicitor. \nSign up for future seminars\n[gravityform id=”1″ name=”CEDAR/MRC Epidemiology Seminar Series sign-up” title=”false”]

SUMMARY:Seminar - Effects of Macronutrient Distribution on Weight Change and Related Cardiometabolic Profiles in Healthy Non-Obese Chinese: A Randomized\, Clinical Trial
DESCRIPTION:All are invited to the CEDAR/MRC Epidemiology Seminar: \nEffects of Macronutrient Distribution on Weight Change and Related Cardiometabolic Profiles in Healthy Non-Obese Chinese: A Randomized\, Clinical Trial \nProfessor Duo Li\, Professor of Nutrition\, Department of Food Science & Nutrition\, Zhejiang University\, China\n \nMeeting Rooms 1&2\, Level 4\, Institute of Metabolic Science\, Cambridge Biomedical Campus \nAbstract\nThis 6 month randomized controlled-feeding trial was conducted to determine whether the traditional low fat\, high carbohydrate diet is more effective than the higher fat\, lower carbohydrate diet at preventing obesity among a non-obese healthy population in China. The trial included 307 young adults aged 18-35 years with a body mass index of less than 28. It showed that the low fat\, high carbohydrate diet reduced body weight to a greater extent than a higher fat\, lower carbohydrate intake. \nAbout Professor Duo Li\nDr Duo Li is a Professor of nutrition in the Department of Food Science & Nutrition\, Zhejiang University\, China. He was a research fellow at Deakin University\, and a senior research fellow at RMIT University\, Melbourne. He is an Editor-in-Chief of the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition\, associate editor of the Journal of Nutrigenetics & Nutrigenomics\, associate editor of the Food & Function\, and has also served on numerous editorial boards. He is an expert consultant of FAO/WHO Expert Consultation on Human Nutrition\, and WHO Expert Advisory Panel on Nutrition. He is a president of Asia Pacific Clinical Nutrition Society. One of his main research interests is to explore the role of dietary fat/fatty acids on human health. \nSign up for future seminars\n[gravityform id=”1″ name=”CEDAR/MRC Epidemiology Seminar Series sign-up” title=”false”] \n  \n
