USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts
The USDA Human Nutrition Research Center (HNRC) on Aging at Tufts University occupies a fourteen-story building constructed in 1982 and is located on the Health Science campus of Tufts University. The center is operated by Tufts University through a cooperative agreement with the Agricultural Research Service of USDA. The overall mandate of the HNRCA is to explore the relationship of nutrition to the aging process and to investigate the many age-related physiologic changes that can affect the dietary requirements of older adults. HNRCA scientists use cell, molecular biology, animal and stable isotope methodologies, and human metabolic and field studies in order (1) to better understand the processes of nutrient utilization and metabolism and (2) to determine how diet interacts with genetic and environmental factors in order to promote health and vigor over the life span.
The Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences
The Sackler School was established in cooperation with the faculties of the Tufts University Schools of Medicine, Dental Medicine, and Veterinary Medicine, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences to further broaden the universitys commitment to multidisciplinary health science investigation. A special goal of the school is to provide a graduate education program in the biomedical sciences for future leaders in research and teaching, stressing interdisciplinary approaches that will integrate basic and clinical sciences.
The New England Medical Center
Nutrition resources at the New England Medical Center (NEMC) include both adult and pediatric clinical programs for hospitalized and ambulatory patients, as well as the Frances Stern Nutrition Center. NEMC is the major clinical unit affiliated with the Tufts University School of Medicine. NEMC has established a national and international reputation for research, teaching, patient care, and graduate and postgraduate education.
The Frances Stern Nutrition Center
This is a subunit in the Division of Endocrinology of the Department of Medicine at NEMC. The center is responsible for ambulatorynutrition services at NEMC, a satellite nutrition education and resource center at the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, and several research grants and contracts involving clinical nutrition or nutrition education and information.
