Summary
The ability of the body to handle acids and bases is critically important for health. Our metabolism leads to the production of acids and bases which must be removed to ensure normal cell and body function. Furthermore, major diseases are associated with acid-base disturbances which drive or worsen disease progression. This symposium brings together the world’s leading experts on these topics.
