							About
				Although there is a wealth of data on how nutrients and diets can support cognitive functions and brain health, their therapeutic and pharmacological potential in humans and clinical conditions remains largely unexplored. Major health organisations have not yet provided dietary recommendations for preserving brain health and cognition. Specific nutrients' role in maintaining brain function during ageing have been clearly defined.
ILSI Europe's Symposium on Nutrition for the Ageing Brain aims to address these gaps by gathering top scientists and stakeholders to review the evidence supporting how nutrients, food and diet influence brain health.
The 6th edition of the symposium will take place on 20 & 21 April 2027 at the Living Place Hotel in Bologna, Italy.
This edition will be co-located with the ILSI Europe Annual Symposium 2027, taking place on 22 April 2027 at the same venue.
Further details, including programme and speakers, will be announced in due course. Stay connected through our official channels for updates!

The Scientific Committee is looking for food and related industry companies as well as scientific journals to support the event.
Rather than scale, the symposium on Nutrition for the Ageing Brain is designed for depth-enabling direct, high-quality interactions and in-depth scientific exchange. For sponsors, this means privileged access to the people driving research and innovation, with the time and setting to build meaningful, lasting connections.
Sponsors have the unique opportunity to help define the event agenda by driving the scientific themes and discussions.
