Data for Impact (D4I)	Siân L. Curtis	We strengthen the technical and organizational capacity of local partners to collect, analyze, and use data to support their move to self-reliance.

Exome Variants Underlying Weight Gain from Adolescence to Adulthood	Penny Gordon-Larsen	The objective of the research is to investigate how genetic variants influence temporal changes in body mass index and downstream cardiometabolic risk factors at a vulnerable lifecycle period for weight gain, with differential risk across race/ethnic groups. Our findings will contribute to the understanding of risk in the transition from adolescence into adulthood, a period of rapid weight gain when precursors of adult disease are developing, in order to inform efforts to mitigate early development of disease risk.
