Medical Research Council (MRC), UK

Project Collaboration with MRC, UK

The Medical Research Council (MRC) improves the health of people in the UK – and around the world – by supporting excellent science, and training the very best scientists. The MRC is part of UK Research and Innovation.

Methodology research, from an MRC perspective, is the study of how best to design, conduct, analyse and evaluate medical and health research. Researchers in a wide range of fields aim to develop the best methods in areas that underpin biomedical science, experimental medicine, clinical trials, population health sciences, health services research and health policy.

With the collaboration with MRC, we will create a new UK/India/Africa multi-disciplinary network to study adolescent nutrition, starting with: 1) skill-sharing and capacity-building; 2) harmonized measurement of nutritional status in young adolescents;3) qualitative exploration of influences on dietary/activity behaviors; and 4) secondary analysis of nutritional predictors of adolescent growth in existing young adult cohorts.

A programme ‘TALENT’, Transforming Adolescence Life Through Nutrition, have been initiated and will work for 18 months at B.K.L. Walawalkar Hospital and latter on it will be implemented in different countries from all over the world. This project will be started at University of Southampton, Medical Research Council, UK, Jimma Ethiopia, Johannesburg, France, Gambia etc.
