Grant Description

This FOA issued by the National Institutes of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, invites grant applications from institutions/organizations that propose to establish core centers that are part of an integrated program of nutrition and/or obesity-research. The Nutrition Obesity Research Center (NORC) program is based on the core concept, whereby shared resources aimed at fostering productivity, synergy, and new research ideas among the funded investigators are supported in a cost-effective manner.
