The International Congress will provide a lifetime opportunity for nutritionists, dietitians and scientists from all continents to meet and interact, and experience a wide array of events, from state-of-the-art lectures and fascinating and informative exhibits to the best in cultural and social gatherings, held in the Thai capital’s magnificent congress facilities.
