Chris MacAskill the case that big data, environmental epidemiology, and cross-disciplinary scientific perspectives can transform the way nutrition research is conducted. Drawing on stories from his time working with Steve Jobs, the origins of the Macintosh, and early smartphone development, he frames nutrition science as another field overdue for rigorous data analysis. He also recounts historical debates around saturated fat, epidemiology, and causal inference, highlighting how different scientific traditions interpret the same evidence. Throughout the talk, he blends memoir, scientific criticism, and reflections on risk factors, public health, and how technological thinking may reshape dietary guidance.
