The journal Nutrients is poised to publish a special issue featuring the proceedings of NUTS 2022, a historic gathering of leading international nutrition researchers.
Held at the INC headquarters in October of last year, NUTS 2022 brought together 25 top scholars to discuss the future of health research on nuts and dried fruits. Representing universities in Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Iran, Italy, Norway, Spain, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, and the United States, the researchers summarized the latest evidence on the health benefits of nuts and dried fruits, and then discussed and defined gaps, new topics, needs and opportunities for future research.
The proceedings of this meeting are now set to appear in a special issue of Nutrients, titled “Nuts: Where We Are and Where We Are Going in Research. Proceedings from the NUTS 2022 International Conference.” This special issue is being guest-edited by Prof. Jordi Salas-Salvadó, Dr. Emilio Ros, Dr. Joan Sabaté and Dr. Stephanie K. Nishi. Papers are being published as they are accepted and will be listed together on the special issue website. To date, five papers have appeared in the journal:
