The registration is open for our yearly CCC symposium at the 8th (closed session) and 9th of April 2020 (open session).

The open CCC-day will be in Groningen at the Best Western Plus Hotel, from 10:30 till approximately 17:00 h in the afternoon, with two inspiring key-note speakers:

  • prof dr Robert Jan Brummer from Orebro University, Sweden: ‘Intestinal short chain fatty acid production – will it make you healthier and happier?’
