- This Project Grant award of $747,000.00 from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) supports research to evaluate breast pumping protocols and elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying enhanced milk production. The research aims to address critical issues around suboptimal breastfeeding practices, which result in significant public health...
The University of Kentucky Research Foundation was awarded a $614,573 Project Grant from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) on September 25, 2025. The grant will support a cluster-randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of moringa leaf powder supplementation on milk volume, milk composition, exclusive breastfeeding rates, and maternal and infant health outcomes among mothers of undernourished infants in Western Kenya. The study aims to determine whether moringa supplementation can increase milk volume, enhance milk nutrients, and improve select markers of maternal and infant health, potentially increasing the duration of exclusive breastfeeding in this population.
