This Grand Round series explores the critical role of metabolic health in preventing and managing chronic disease. Through expert presentations and case discussions, we examine the latest research, clinical applications, and dietary strategies that support metabolic function. Join us to deepen your understanding of nutrition, insulin resistance, and therapeutic interventions that can transform patient outcomes.

Join the AMHS to access the monthly Grand Rounds; some sessions will be open to the public, but most will be for members only.

Presentations and speakers are subject to change.
