Center for Precision Nutrition and Health
Human health and well-being are influenced by multiple factors including genetics, metabolism, and environment.
While research and the translation of research often focus on single factors and/or a single disciplinary approach, the complex relationship of nutrition to health outcomes means that efforts to translate nutrition and health research to policy and practice must be founded in a multidisciplinary approach that embraces complexity.
To address these needs, we have established a
Center for Precision Nutrition and Health
in the College of Human Ecology at Cornell University.
MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH
A transformation in nutrition science
We will integrate novel approaches in precision nutrition, artificial intelligence, and technology to improve population health through the work of the center. Our work will help connect individual level guidance to population level policies and to bridge academic research to translation. The CPNH will ultimately support the translational pipeline to move science, evidence, and associated technologies from academic settings to the broader community.
Our Hubs
AI and Precision Nutrition Hub
Nutrition and health research is transitioning from population-based one-size-fits all approaches to understanding individual-level requirements for optimal health.
Evidence Synthesis Hub
We routinely conduct systematic reviews and synthesize evidence in partnership with guideline-forming agencies and implementing organizations to inform global and regional policy.
Training and Partnerships Hub
We are training the next generation of scientists and are home to the first NIH institutional training grant focused on the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and nutrition.
