Welcome to Metabolism Month, which brings together researchers within the field of metabolism to discuss the latest science in metabolic diseases and energy control. It is hosted and organised by the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR) at the University of Copenhagen.

We have organised eight keynote talks from internationally recognised scientists, three poster sessions and a debate, which will be held on the first four Tuesdays in March. The format is the same for each week: Two speakers with a poster session or debate in between, from 16:00 to 18:00 CET.

You are currently viewing the event for Week 1 of Metabolism Month, which will be held on March 2, 2021; 16:00-18:00 CET.

The theme for this week is Integrative Metabolism and Environmental Influences.

Resources

The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR) was established in 2010 at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. The establishment of the Center was made possible by a generous (DKK 885 million), unrestricted grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation. In 2018 the Novo Nordisk Foundation awarded new strategic funding to the Center (DKK 700 million). Find out more about CBMR, the Foundation and the Center’s activities using the following links:
