DESCRIPTION: \n\nIn the last 10 years it has become clear that vitamin D m
 ay have a wide range of physiological benefits beyond its well-recognised 
 effects on calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism. Vitamin D-deficiency i
 s commonly linked to the bone disease rickets\, but has recently been asso
 ciated with other human health problems including common cancers\, autoimm
 une disease\, cardiovascular disease and adverse events in pregnancy.\n	Th
 ese extra-skeletal effects of vitamin D are best illustrated by its intera
 ction with the immune system\, with vitamin D demonstrating both antimicro
 bial and anti-inflammatory immune activity. As a consequence\, vitamin D s
 upplementation has been explored for diverse immune disorders such as tube
 rculosis and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis. However\, the
  immunomodulatory effects of vitamin D have been extended further to inclu
 de acute respiratory infections such as common colds and influenza and\, i
 n the last year\, effects on Covid-19 infection.\n	The NUGO webinar will o
 utline the research that has led to this new perspective on vitamin D and 
 the immune system\, and will also explore potential future applications fo
 r vitamin D supplementation.\n\nRegister
