Children’s Nutrition Research Center Staff Publications
The Children’s Nutrition Research Center (CNRC) is a unique cooperative venture between Baylor College of Medicine, Texas Children's Hospital and the U.S. Department of Agriculture/Agricultural Research Service (USDA/ARS). The center has 50 faculty members conducting nutrition-related research and a total staff of more than 200.
Texas Children's is creating a healthier future for children and women across our global community through our leadership in patient care, education and research. We’re proud of the daily efforts that build into cumulative medical results and discoveries accomplished by each of our institutions.
The Children’s Nutrition Research Center is the first federal nutrition research center to investigate the nutritional needs of children from conception through adolescence, and that of pregnant women and nursing mothers. It is 1 of 6 U.S. Department of Agriculture human nutrition research centers conducting scientific investigations designed to provide Americans with a clear understanding of the role of nutrition in maintaining a healthy, active life.
