Event Description
Cardiometabolic syndrome (CMS) is a complex medical condition associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and cost. It is increasingly appreciated that the condition is also linked to non-cardiac disease including fatty liver disease and cancer. The underlying pre-morbid conditions for CMS include hypertension, insulin resistance and type II diabetes, elevated serum lipids, and obesity. Professor Dr. Shreela Sharma, PhD, RD, LD will be speaking on Friday, August 24.
