Our speaker will be Dr. Susan Sumner from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill . She will discuss "The Internal Exposome in Precision Medicine and Precision Nutrition”.
Dr. Sumner's laboratory is using untargeted metabolomics of the internal exposome to reveal how exposures perturb our normal metabolic state, and how these perturbations are associated with states of health and wellness. Using a nutritional pharmacology/toxicology workflow, the high-information metabolomics/exposome data is evaluated to design intervention strategies: such as needs in exposure reduction, or the formulation of nutrient cocktails that could protect against adverse exposures, or augment the beneficial impact of medical treatments. Applications in areas of drug addiction, inflammation, and pregnancy complications will be presented in the context of informing nutritional guidance. Ultimately, the nutritional pharmacology/toxicology approach will have a significant impact on public health by reducing environmentally related disease burden, or augmenting the beneficial impact of specific treatments (U2CES030857, U24CA268153).

The Metabolomics Scientific Interest Group was created to help stimulate more interest in the field and aims to bring interested NIH program officials, intramural investigators and others together. The group has periodic webinars that highlight recent work in the field. Additionally, the listserv is used to communicate information on upcoming metabolomics-related seminars, funding opportunities, and other NIH activities and initiatives.
Any member of the scientific community who is interested in the field of metabolomics and keeping abreast of NIH metabolomics-related activities and initiatives, please consider joining the Metabolomics Scientific Interest Group. The main method of communication for the group is the listserv, which you will be added to upon joining.
