“Intestinal Triglyceride Transport and Metabolism: Storage and Secretion” presented by Dr. Kimberly Buhman. Dr. Buhman is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Nutrition Science at Purdue University. She completed her PhD in Nutrition at Purdue University and postdoctoral fellowships in lipid metabolism at the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Current research in the Buhman laboratory is focused on better understanding the process of dietary fat absorption. The long-term goal of research by the Buhman laboratory is to identify novel factors that regulate dietary fat sensing, metabolism and absorption that may be exploited for preventive and therapeutic interventions for obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
