Understanding the molecular mechanisms driving inter-individual response to childhood malnutrition, and its long-term consequences Ghent University
Nutrition in the first 1000 days of life is critical in determining long-term health outcomes. We have previously shown that malnutrition during this fragile window increases the risk for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) during adulthood. Hence, understanding determinants of early-life development is crucial to ensure long-term health.
My bench-to-bedside study aims to improve the nutritional status of children in low and ...
