# Pennington/Louisiana NORC Supplement - 2021 Trans-NORC Training Course in Nutrition and Obesity Research Methods

> **NIH NIH P30** · LSU PENNINGTON BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH CTR · 2020 · $123,167

## Abstract

Project Summary
In the second iteration of this Trans-NORC Training Course to be held in April 2021, one goal will be to conduct
lectures on the state-of-the-art methods in nutrition/obesity research; however, the primary goal will be to
provide a hands-on experience and continue to encourage and facilitate new, innovative and collaborative
research within and between our NORC overall programs. We will also demonstrate the Pennington/Louisiana
NORC Repository and workshop participants will be able to conduct search queries of the data repository and to
submit a request for data in support of their research goals. A major strength of our different NORC programs is
that they allow for enrichment activities that facilitate communication and exchanges of ideas between the
critical mass of senior scientists and younger scientists in training. Such interactions and synergism are
designed to produce new and scientifically exciting research ideas. Therefore, the training and communication
framework established through this trans-NORC Training Course will provide a venue for young investigators to
cross pollinate between the 12 NORC programs and lead to a future filled with new and innovative collaborative
projects in the Nutrition and Obesity research field.
