Endocrinology of Growth
Work on endocrinology of growth involves
the study of the physiological and molecular
mechanisms by which the secretion of hormones
and growth regulate musculoskeletal
growth, lactation, and nutrient use in
animals used to produce food and fiber. CSREES
funds work on endocrinology of growth in
food animals and supports the efforts of
the land-grant partnership in developing
practical applications resulting from this
work.
