Title of Collaborative Activity: |
Nutrition Research Coordinating Committee (NRCC) |
Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The Nutrition Research Coordinating Committee (NRCC) was established by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director in 1975 to improve communication and research coordination of nutrition activities within the NIH and across the federal government. Today it provides an open forum for members to discuss current and future nutrition research challenges and opportunities. The NRCC has broad representation from the NIH institutes and centers. In addition, liaisons from other federal offices and agencies also participate. The NRCC meets monthly, alternating between intra-NIH and interagency meetings. NRCC membership is open to any federal staff member interested in carrying out any trans-NIH or trans-agency nutrition research efforts. |
