This three-day virtual NIH workshop, sponsored in part by NHLBI, aims to review the state of the science related to food insecurity and the neighborhood food environment, then identify research gaps and opportunities. Participants also will explore innovative research strategies that could inform policies and practices that help prevent diet-related health disparities, as well as promote health equity.

This event, which is free and open to the public, features panel discussions, networking opportunities and two poster sessions. Abstracts for the poster sessions are due by July 9, 2021, and registration is required by Sept. 7, 2021 to access the virtual meeting platform.
