The Colorado NORC offers several events throughout the year to facilitate collaborative research and networking. See below for upcoming and past events.
Registration is open for the 2024 Calorimetry Workshop!
The workshop will review the technical aspects of indirect calorimetry. There will be sessions on metabolic carts, room calorimetry, and animal calorimetry systems. Topics will include a review and comparison of different gas analyzers, derivation and application of equations for measuring energy expenditure and substrate oxidation, approaches to validation and calibration, design consideration for room calorimeters, and an overview of signal processing approaches. The workshop is open to all – we welcome students, trainees, and experienced investigators. Registration is free and includes a continental breakfast for both days as well as a lunch and reception on the 15th.
Please contact olivia.schmidt@cuasnchutz.edu for any registration questions.

Donald E. Elliman Conference Center
The Cancer Metabolism Workshop will provide a current perspective on cancer metabolic adaptation and recent advancements in measuring the metabolome and targeting it with new therapeutic approaches. The workshop will bring together experts from the fields of metabolomics, exercise, diet, drug development, and cancer biology.
Undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students in biomedical sciences and research and clinical faculty interested in building collaborations that enhance the metabolic fitness and disease outcome for cancer patients are encouraged to attend.
