Deadline- 1 May 2013
The Feed the Future Innovation Lab is inviting proposals for Livestock and Nutrition Research for which the topic is Understanding Microbiomes to Improve Animal Health and Human Nutrition. The goal of this program is to enhance understanding of the role of microbes in human nutrition and animal health through the synthesis, implementation and analysis of livestock and human microbes associated with disease-causing pathogens that infect the intestinal tract. Humans and livestock share a number of these pathogens, and additional research will advance our understanding of how they impact health.
Eligibility & criteria-
The call for proposals is open to researchers at U.S. universities and their partners, including at least one host-country institution or organization. The country focus is limited to Nepal and Uganda.
