Project Details

Description

The project consists of 6 work packages exploring different aspects of CYCF from different disciplines.

WP 1: Cohort study on diet, growth and other health parameters
WP 2: Methodology for dietary assessment in children and a national survey
WP 3: Early growth, CYCF, and obesity in the Danish National Birth Cohort
WP 4: Iron, growth and infectious diseases
