More information about the event can be found here.
The theme of the symposium is ‘Come Together: Putting research into practice for performing arts medicine across our international community’ and Katie’s paper – titled Why Nutrition Matters – The Positive Impact Reducing Sugar and Carbohydrate Intake has on the Singing Voice – will be featured as part of the event’s Poster Parade presentation. The paper evaluated all recent and relevant key studies on the subject, analysing data on a variety of topics including voice, singing, nutrition, chronic laryngitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), laryngopharyngeal reflux, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance.
