note = "Funding Information: The 24th Workshop on Vitamin D was held at the Thompson Conference Center on the campus of University of Texas at Austin in Austin, Texas from September 7 – 9, 2022. The Workshop was organized by Dr. Margherita Cantorna (Scientific Chair, Pennsylvania State University), Dr. Mark Meyer (Assistant Scientific Chair, University of Wisconsin-Madison), Dr. James Fleet (President of the Vitamin D workshop, University of Texas at Austin), Dr. JoEllen Welsh (Chief Financial Officer of the Vitamin D workshop, Inc, SUNY Albany, NY) and Nichole Ballard (YesEvents, Inc.). The subject matter of the invited presentations were chosen by the Workshop Executive Committee as well as the Program Advisory Committee ( http://www.vitamindworkshop.org ). This was the first in-person workshop held in three years due to the COVID-19 global pandemic and associated restrictions (2020 was canceled, 2021 was held virtually). The meeting drew 125 attendees from 17 countries with attendees from the United States, Western Europe, South America, Japan, Nepal, Mongolia, South Africa, Mexico, and others. The organizing committee invited 17 speakers leading the field with exciting publications in the vitamin D field over the past two calendar years. There were over 100 abstracts submitted for this meeting and from those abstracts the awardees, promoted talks, and plenary posters were selected. The committee was pleased to promote 27 of the top scoring abstracts to the podium, whose research are detailed in the sections below. The plenary poster session opened the meeting at the Opening Reception on Tuesday evening September 6th with 20 selected Plenary Posters covering a wide range of topics related to the actions of vitamin D in pregnancy, the intestine, the immune system, those with kidney disease, and cancer. Forty additional posters were presented on September 7th and 8th during the lunchtime break.
