Working Group 2

Working Group 2 : Inter-individual variation in the biological responsiveness regarding cardiometabolic endpoints

Main Tasks :

  • Assess inter-individual variation in selected clinical and molecular biomarkers of cardiometabolic risk in response to plant food bioactives consumption
  • Determine factors of inter-individual variation

Expected concrete outcomes :

  • Consensus on existing tools and methods and on emerging omics approaches to evaluate biological response to plant food bioactives
  • Identification of factors beyond bioavailability (such as age, gender, physiological/health status) which affect biological responsiveness
  • Pinpoint cellular pathways, candidate genes and their variants involved in inter-individual variation
