Our goal at the Institute of Human Nutrition is "to train individuals for scholarly activities and for positions in universities and research centers that are in the forefront of the movement to advance nutrition as a health science". In order to be effective in reaching this goal, the Institute organizes and conducts leading-edge nutrition research and education activities throughout Columbia University and its affiliated institutions. These activities include basic research, clinical research, public health-preventive medicine programs, and education and training at many levels.
