Approximately
150 people participated in the 28th National
Nutrient Databank Conference and 37 shared their expertise
through oral presentations augmented with PowerPoint Slide
Shows. By
popular demand we are posting many of these PowerPoint
Presentations for the use of attendees and others interested
food composition data. The
presentations are divided into seven sessions:
Keynote; Functional Foods; Portion Sizes; Data Quality
in Research; Agriculture, Public Health and Medical Practice;
Database Management, New Data; and Dietary Supplements.
In addition, we have posted a compilation of candid shots
taken by our conference photographer, Katie Tharp. We hope these slide presentations will facilitate your
work in the area of food composition and analysis.
