The mission of the Stanford Center for Clinical Research (SCCR) includes offering educational resources, training, and support for investigators and research staff.  We have invited the research dietitian at Stanford Prevention Research Center, Dalia Perelman, RD, to provide you with an exploration into the weight management. Losing weight continues to be a great challenge, and for those who succeed, maintaining that loss is even more difficult. During this presentation, we will discuss some of the ways researchers are looking into this and the findings from examining the results from a yearlong weight loss study.”

The Course Objectives include:

  • Is cutting calories enough to achieve weight loss?
  • Does the quality of the diet matter?
  • What is Respiratory Quotient and what is its relationship to weight loss?
  • What are the different variables affecting short term (6 months) versus long term (12 months) weight loss?

About the Instructor:

Dalia Perelman, RD, MS, CDE, is a Registered Dietitian and a Certified Diabetes Educator. She has always been interested in both Nutrition research and its application in clinical practice and has worked in both environments. For 14 years she was a clinical dietitian at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation counseling people with diabetes, heart disease, gastrointestinal disorders, and other conditions. She understands the power of diet in disease prevention and treatment and is currently working as a research dietitian at Stanford University to continue to elucidate the use of dietary measures to effectively promote optimal health. Some of the studies Dalia has worked on include the relationship between dietary intake and adipocyte function, the effect of dietary fiber and fermented foods on the microbiome and personalizing dietary recommendations for optimal blood sugar control.
