Dr. Paul Coates, Director of the Office of Dietary Supplements,
National Institutes of Health, to Present the Next NGN Seminar Series
November 14th at Noon, Nebraska East Union
(Brown Bag Lunch with Beverages and Dessert Provided)
Dr. Paul Coates’ talk entitled “Dietary Supplement Research Isn’t That Hard – Or Is It?” will be given at noon on Wednesday, November 14th, as the next speaker in the Nebraska Gateway to Nutrigenomics (NGN) Seminar Series. This seminar will take place in the Columbine/Goldenrod Room of the Nebraska East Union.
Dr. Paul Coates has directed the Office of Dietary Supplements at the National Institutes of Health since October 1999 in its mission to strengthen knowledge and understanding of dietary supplements. He oversees a range of initiatives and programs that support research and the training of investigators and also lead to the development of information resources and tools. Dr. Coates’ major research interests for many years focused on inborn errors of human lipid metabolism, an area where he conducted some of the first studies of fatty acid oxidation disorders in infants and children. With an international team of collaborators, he defined many of the genetic defects of human mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Dr. Coates also has studied the metabolism of intestinal and hepatic lipoproteins to identify the metabolic defects in inherited hyperlipidemias. These studies have led to a new understanding of therole of environmental factors, such as diet, in the manifestation of genetic diseases. Dr. Coates has published more than 100 scientific papers and has edited two books in these areas of research.
