National Research Initiative - Animal Growth and Nutrient Utilization
Suboptimal nutrition and growth are limiting factors in animal productivity. Basic information regarding these processes in agriculturally important animals, including aquaculture species, is lacking. The primary objective of the program is to increase our understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying normal animal growth, development of skeletal muscle, lactation, and nutrient digestion and metabolism. Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the entire Program Description section for current priorities and additional information relative to the program of interest. Please carefully review the RFA guidelines to ensure application acceptance.
