The development of better and more robust measures of dietary intake in free living situations was identified as a priority for advancing nutrition research by the Office of Strategic Coordination for Health Research (OSCHR) Review of Nutrition and Human Health Research in 2017. The UK Nutrition Research Partnership (NRP) sponsored a workshop on Dietary Intake Assessment methodology alongside its series of 'Hot Topic' workshops designed to accelerate progress in nutrition research by bringing together people from a range of different disciplines. The workshop on Dietary Intake Assessment methodology took place via Zoom over two half-days in January 2021 and included 50 scientists from a wide range of disciplines. The problems with current methods of dietary assessment and how emerging technologies might address them were set out in pre-recorded presentations and explored in panel discussions. Participants then worked in breakout groups to discuss and prioritise the research questions that should be addressed to best further the field and lead to improvements in dietary assessment methodology. Five priority research questions were selected. Participants were asked to brainstorm potential approaches for addressing them and were then asked to focus on one approach and develop it further. At the end of these sessions, participants presented their project ideas to the rest of the workshop and these will be reported back to the Medical Research Council. It is hoped that potential collaborative projects arising from these discussions will be taken forward in response to future funding calls.
2017年，健康研究战略协调办公室（OSCHR）对营养与人类健康研究的审查将开发更好、更可靠的自由生活环境下饮食摄入量测量方法确定为推进营养研究的优先事项。英国营养研究伙伴关系（NRP）主办了一次关于饮食摄入量评估方法的研讨会，这是其一系列“热门话题”研讨会的一部分，旨在通过汇聚不同学科的人员来加速营养研究的进展。饮食摄入量评估方法研讨会于2021年1月通过Zoom平台分两个半天举行，有来自广泛学科的50位科学家参加。预先录制的演讲中阐述了当前饮食评估方法存在的问题以及新兴技术如何解决这些问题，并在小组讨论中进行了探讨。参与者随后分成小组讨论并确定了为推动该领域发展并改进饮食评估方法应解决的研究问题的优先级。选定了五个优先研究问题。要求参与者集思广益，提出解决这些问题的潜在方法，然后要求他们专注于一种方法并进一步完善。在这些环节结束时，参与者向研讨会的其他人员介绍了他们项目的想法，这些想法将反馈给医学研究理事会。希望这些讨论产生的潜在合作项目将在未来的资金申请中得到推进。
