Vitamin D Workshop Mission Statement
The organization known as the Vitamin D Workshop was established in 1973, The primary mission of the Vitamin D Workshop is to conduct scientific meetings on all topics related to vitamin D, but particularly those in which active current research is being conducted. The term ‘vitamin D’ is used in the broadest fashion possible, and includes not only the parent vitamin D itself and its precursors, but any and all metabolites and modified forms (analogs) of vitamin D and its metabolites present in any biological system. Attendance at the meetings is open to all scientists of the world who have an interest in furthering our understanding of the properties and biological purpose of vitamin D and related compounds. When feasible, the Vitamin D Workshop endeavors to publish comprehensive reports of the scientific meeting in Proceedings which will be widely available.
