Phospholipids: Novel Therapeutic Applications

Phospholipids and their biochemistry are essential components of cellular function. Whilst it has been tempting to see lipid therapy polarising between Omega 3 and Omega 6 there are many other essential carbon chain fats that influence health, even in complex illness. This 2 day conference is aimed at the practitioner looking for the next level of understanding in the delivery of fatty acid therapy for sophisticated clinical strategy.

Leading experts will discuss, investigations, interventions, lipid chemistry and its role as direct therapy. This 2 day conference will bring a new perspective to your clinical practice and is suited for all practitioners involved in the management of their patients using fatty acids.
