The 2022 MNI Grant was awarded to the Italian Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (SINPE) for its ambitious project dedicated to providing learning on clinical nutrition to junior oncologists and titled “Empowering junior medical oncology clinicians on cancer-related malnutrition”.
The award was consigned by MNI President, Manuela Schaflechner, to Dr Lidia Santarpia – researcher at University of Naples, Italy – during the MNI Grant Ceremony held on 5 September 2022 in Vienna, Austria.
