In the Summer Research Newsletter published last week, I previewed the agenda and invited speakers for the 2024 8p Family & Science Conference, which kicks off today in Denver Colorado. The entire Project 8p team has meticulously planned this meeting since the start of the year, assembling a special group of stakeholders in one location. Notably, over 30 8p heroes and their families will be in attendance, the largest 8p community gathering to date.
On behalf of the Project 8p science team, now led by Dr. Barbara Celona, I present the rationale for leveraging the 2024 8p Family & Science Conference as a popup clinical research site for a hypothesis generating, cross-sectional study to assess nutritional status, bioenergetics (mitochondrial) dysfunction, protein markers of inflammation, gene expression patterns, metabolite levels, and gut microbiome composition in 8p heroes.
Or what we have dubbed the 8p Health Canvas.
