Collaborations across different countries have the advantage of increasing the cultural and ethnic diversity in the populations studied, Dr. Anderson Berry said.  The collaborative Priority Research Center aims to co-create high quality nutrition research in a lifecourse perspective relevant for policymakers and stakeholders regionally, nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Hanson, &#8220;The vision of the center is that children and adolescents grow up eating a healthy diet, learning the skills to maintain this throughout their lives, while in parallel securing the health potential for future children. Diet today- health of tomorrow! Our mission is to conduct high quality research to stimulate, promote and advocate a healthy food environment and improve the individual&#8217;s diet throughout the lifecourse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Both countries have room for public health initiatives. &#8220;It feels a little bit like in some segments of our population we&#8217;re cycling downwards instead of up,&#8221; Dr. Anderson Berry said. &#8220;And so the thought of this (project) is to break that cycle. To change the trajectory of our most at-risk populations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They hope their findings can be utilized on a population level, in order to enable that change.<\/p>\n<!-- <a rel=\"nofollow\"
