Professor Kevin Whelan discusses the work of the Academy of Nutrition Sciences

The Academy of Nutrition Sciences (ANS) is a joint initiative between the Association for Nutrition (AfN), the British Dietetic Association (BDA), the British Nutrition Foundation (BNF) and the Nutrition Society (NS).
In 2018, representatives of the four major organisations involved in nutrition science research, the communication and application of research, nutrition education and nutrition professional regulation, met to consider what was needed to improve the knowledge and application of nutrition in the UK.
Kevin Whelan is the Professor of Dietetics and Head of Department of Nutritional Sciences at King's College London. He discusses his role with the ANS and why it's important for BDA members.
