    Research and research education to improve the nutrition of infants, children, adolescents and pregnant and lactating women
    Role Description: he mission of the Children's Nutrition Research Center (CNRC) is to conduct research that will lead to a definition of the nutritional requirements needed to ensure health in children from conception through adolescence, and in pregnant and lactating women. To accomplish this mission, the CNRC maintains these research areas: a. Nutritional Metabolism in Mothers, Infants and Children b. Pediatric Clinical Nutrition c. Childhood Obesity Prevention d. Developmental Determinants of Obesity in Infants and Children e. Molecular, Cellular and Regulatory aspects of Nutrition during Development This research is to be accomplished over a multi-year period as resources are available via a specific cooperative agreement.
    Role: Co-investigator

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
