The course will deal with diet-genome interactions and the application of nutritional strategies in health maintenance.
Students should become familiar with the concept that external molecules present in our foods can affect human metabolism and gene expression in different cells and tissues. The course will address the utilization of the concept of “system biology” to nutrition.
