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. | Data Science, Interventions and Evaluation, Race/Gender/Age/SES | Bangladesh, Botswana, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Malawi, Zimbabwe |
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. | Biomarkers, Biostatistics, Data Science, Longitudinal/Life-Course, Multi-level Approaches, Race/Gender/Age/SES | United States of America |
