Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Stephen Simpson (Principal investigator) ,  Prof David Le Couteur ,  Prof David Raubenheimer ,  Prof Jacob George ,  Prof Jenny Gunton

Brief description Nutrition shapes the relationship between genes and health, and failure to attain dietary balance has profound biological consequences leading to disease. This Application proposes an integrated program that harnesses advances in nutritional theory, systems metabolism, and data modelling that evaluates the effects of macro- and micro-nutrients on mice, cells and humans. This will provide the scientific foundations necessary for the development of evidence-based precision nutrition.
