This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) will fund an annual 5-day training course on clinical research methods for nutrition and obesity at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center. Over the 5-year grant period, approximately 180 postdoctoral fellows and early career faculty will learn advanced techniques for conducting obesity and nutrition research, including hands-on experience with procedures and data analysis. The $107,987 award, effective September 1, 2024, will allow Pennington Biomedical to leverage its world-class facilities and research expertise to train the next generation of scientists, including those from underrepresented groups, in the critical skills needed for rigorous clinical studies in these important health domains.
