DESCRIPTION:Philipp Gut\, M.D.\, Department Manager at Nestlé Research\, 
 Nestlé Institute of Health Sciences\, Lausanne (CH)\nWEEKLY EPFL BIOE TAL
 KS SERIES (sandwiches provided)\n\nAbstract:\nInadequate nutrition is cons
 idered the main risk factor for non-communicable diseases and mortality. A
 s such\, poor nutrition accentuates the burden of demographic aging for gl
 obal public health. Beyond the consumption of a generally diverse and bala
 nced diet\, food can be designed to address nutritional gaps that are caus
 ally linked to cellular and physiological aging. In this talk\, I will pre
 sent discovery work on human metabolites and plant-derived small molecules
  that slow cellular aging as well as research into biological age clocks a
 s tools go guide healthy aging interventions. I will further discuss trans
 lational challenges and opportunities to deploy nutritional solutions effe
 ctively for primary prevention.\n\nBio:\nPhilipp is Head of Data Sciences 
 and Precision Nutrition and Expert for Biology of Aging at the Nestlé Ins
 titute of Health Sciences. In these roles\, he leads research programs tha
 t develop nutritional solutions for proactive health care and prevention o
 f non-communicable diseases. Current research spans precision nutrition in
 terventions for biological age management\, biological age clocks and digi
 tal nutrition services.\n\nPhilipp graduated from Heidelberg Medical Schoo
 l in Germany prior to working in Academia at the University of California 
 and the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco\, USA on molecular mechanism
 s of metabolic and age-related diseases.\n\n\n\n\nZoom link (with one-time
