Matthew Vander Heiden Seminar
The Nutrition and Metabolism Graduate Program Students would like to invite you to the Alfred E. Harper Seminar in Nutrition Metabolism. Professor Matthew Vander Heiden is from the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT. Professor Vander Heiden’s work explores metabolism and cancer biology, with a focus on how diet and whole-body metabolism affect cancer and other disease phenotypes. Recently, his group published a study showing that the metabolism of cancer cells is influenced by the tissue of origin and this dictates where the cancer cells can metastasize. You can read the study here – https://www.nature.com/articles/s42255-024-01105-9
Please join us for Professor Vander Heiden’s seminar on Wednesday, September 24, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. will be held at the DeLuca Forum, Discovery Building. The title of his seminar is: “Influence of Nutrients on Cancer Progression”.
