Book Signing with Plenary Speaker Rodney Dietert

Wednesday, November 9

10:00 AM–10:50 AM
Registration Area, Fourth Floor

Come to the registration area during your morning session break to meet Dr. Dietert, author of The Human Superorganism: How the Microbiome Is Revolutionizing the Pursuit of a Healthy Life. Bring your personal copy of his book or purchase a copy from the on-site local book vendor, The Ivy Bookshop.

Rodney Dietert, PhD, is professor of immunotoxicology at Cornell University. For more than 35 years, he has researched the effects of environment factors (e.g, chemicals, drugs, stress, and infectious agents) on the developing immune system. More recently, he turned his focus to the microbiome and it's critical role in human health. This experience has given him a novel perspective on the benefits of protecting the biological systems that most directly affect the health of our children. Often aided by his talented co-author wife, Rodney has prepared health-related books and articles of value for both general and technical audiences.
