Nutrition, Obesity, and Metabolism in Heart Failure: Mechanistic Insights and Translational Opportunities
The presentation will discuss the metabolic and physiological effects of diet and obesity on cardiometabolic health, with a focus on heart failure. The talk will bridge basic and clinical research, highlighting mechanistic findings related to body composition, energy metabolism, and inflammation. Emphasis will be placed on how targeted dietary interventions can modulate these pathways to improve functional and clinical outcomes.
