Dr. Anna Maria Siega-Riz will describe the work undertaken by the NASEM Committee on DRIs for Energy to assess human nutrient requirements for energy and the evidence for relationships between energy balance or imbalance and health outcomes.
Dr. Susan Barr will present on the applications of the EERs and how these differ from the applications of DRIs for other nutrients.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
-
After viewing this webinar, participants will:
- Learn about the contents of the 2023 report on DRIs for Energy and key differences from the previous DRI report.

(Master of Science). in Food, Nutrition, and Food Service Management from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and a Ph.D. in Nutrition with a minor in Epidemiology from the University of North Carolina School of Public Health. She held the credentials of a registered dietician from 1983–2014.
Susan I. Barr, Ph.D., F.D.C.
Dr. Susan Barr is a Professor Emeritus of Food, Nutrition and Health at the University of British Columbia. Her research interests relate to how women’s cognitions about food, eating, and body weight may have physiological implications for their health. She has also done work examining dietary practices and nutrient adequacy. Dr. Barr has published over 200 articles in peer-reviewed journals, and has been a member of a number of Editorial Boards. She was involved in the development of the initial Dietary Reference Intakes as a member and Chair of the Subcommittee on Interpretation and Uses of DRIs, and subsequently served on the Committee on Development of Guiding Principles for the Inclusion of Chronic Disease Endpoints in Future Dietary Reference Intakes. Most recently, she was a member of the NASEM Committee on Dietary Reference Intakes for Energy. Dr. Barr received her PhD in human nutrition from the University of Minnesota, and has received several awards for teaching, research and service including being named as a Fellow of Dietitians of Canada. In retirement, she now has time to explore other passions, including long-distance cycling, learning to figure skate and learning to speak French.
