ILSI North America Research Design Challenge
Pitch a research design idea at ASN NUTRITION 2018 to compete for a prize award.
Abstract due January 18, 2018
Non-essential bioactive dietary components may help maintain optimal health and reduce risk of chronic disease. Recommended intakes of bioactive dietary components should have solid evidence of safe use at efficacious levels. Such evidence will improve the confidence of regulatory bodies with product oversight and health professionals providing advice to the general public.
Efficacy studies are not designed to measure safety and typically report results in terms of subject’s adverse events or reasons for dropouts. However, evidence of safe use at efficacious levels could be greatly improved if safety related measures were proactively integrated and more thoroughly reported in clinical efficacy testing. Lower cost, highly efficient study designs are needed to increase collection of safety data as secondary measures integrated in clinical efficacy research.
Opportunity: Assemble and lead your own cross-functional team to develop a novel research design that meets the stated challenge objectives and then pitch it at NUTRITION 2018 (Jun 9-12, Boston). One team member must attend ASN’s NUTRITION 2018 meeting to make the pitch.
