Hi friends dear and dear chairman of the APCNS
First and foremost, I would like to thank everyone again in this room. I would like to give a special thanks to APCNS. This conference will not be the same without any single and one of you take your time and work attending. It is a first for us to host these two important conferences simultaneously and I am proud that we did justice to both. I tank you for all your contributions.
. Conference goers were active in participation and very eager to learn whereas all speakers were kind of enough to share their research as well as patiently answer y's questions. These couple of days have also been very meaningful to me as it's also also a first for us to have 3500 like-people including 380 speakers from 27 countries sharing and exchanging information to better help nutrition research and practice. We have also 380 speakers. As we've learned each other other past few days, applyinging nutrition research to clinical practice is no small feat as it not only requires strong science as theory, but also also finding practical and sustainable way to realize them; all requiring each and every related fields to work closely together order to achieve success. Looking back at the past few days, it's evident that everyone here is passionate what what we are doing. While these three days, we see the possibility of dreams becoming reality.
Finally, I would like to thank again prof Mark, Prof Alfredo, Ibrahim, prof Show and Prof Chenfor your support.
. As of you are here, the conference has enhanced the popularity and luster.
old Chinese saying goes there is no never-ending feast. I hope you have all found it a fruitful event, be it learning new things, exchanging ideas or evennecting with old friends and make new ones. So maybe we will have the opportunity to get together again in somewhere China, or in two years in Dubai. But for now, I wish all of you a safe trip back home and enjoy Nanjing!
Thank you all!
