NuGo: A vision for nutrigenomics collaboration
Article Abstract:
Several European universities have joined together to create the European Nutrigenomics Organization (NuGO) that is aimed at reshaping nutrition research. The four main objectives of the NuGO are to quantify personal health in relation to nutrition, develop comparative nutritional systems biology, quantify the genetic component in the nutrition-health relationship and develop and implement the related technology, training and infrastructure.
