Presenter

Dr. Denise Furness

This masterclass delves into the rapidly growing field of precision healthcare focusing on DNA testing and exploring how the science of gene-nutrient interactions can transform healthcare. As we move toward a future of personalised healthcare, understanding how individual genetic variations influence nutritional needs and susceptibility to chronic disorders is essential for improved health outcomes ranging from improved fertility to healthy ageing.

You will learn how to use DNA testing to tailor personalised treatment strategies that address each patient’s unique genetic makeup, leading to improved health results. For health practitioners, this knowledge opens new opportunities to differentiate their services, offering specialised, evidence-based care that attracts clients and helps build a thriving business.

Whether you’re looking to deepen your clinical expertise or expand your practice, this masterclass will equip you with the tools and insights needed to stay at the forefront of healthcare innovation.

Key Learnings:

Dr. Denise Furness

PhD, BSc(Hons), RNutr, CSO 
Dr. Denise Furness, PhD is a molecular geneticist and nutritionist. She is a pioneer in the field of nutrigenomics and personalised health with 20 years of experience in the area. Denise began her career as a research scientist focusing on nutrigenomics, epigenetics, and DNA damage to support fertility and pregnancy health. She has published her work in peer reviewed journals and won numerous awards for her research and conference presentations. During her post-doctoral fellowship in Obstetrics and Gynaecology she worked alongside a team of medical specialists and researchers within a recurrent miscarriage clinic, which resulted in an 80% success rate of healthy pregnancy outcomes. In 2012 she founded Your Genes and Nutrition and began applying her knowledge in clinical practice. Denise has a special interest in fertility, thyroid and autoimmunity (after recovering from autoimmune thyroid disease herself), as well as healthy ageing.
