Texas Academy Virtual Delegates Update

Future Practice and Changing Science: What Texas Dietitians Need to Know

Join us in January for a Texas Academy discussion led by the House of Delegates, focused on how changing science is shaping the future of nutrition and dietetics practice.

As research evolves rapidly and new tools like artificial intelligence, open science, and digital platforms reshape how information is created and shared, dietitians are navigating increasing complexity, misinformation, and shifting public trust. This session will explore what these changes mean for evidence-based practice, ethical responsibility, and clinical decision-making across practice settings.

Topics will include emerging trends in nutrition science, the growing role of technology and AI, scientific literacy and transparency, and how dietitians can remain trusted experts while adapting to ongoing scientific change.
