Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Malnutrition remains a major problem in both developing and industrialized countries and is getting worse in selected settings. However, progress has been made in alleviating malnutrition, and the motivation and tools for tackling malnutrition and its consequences have never been more favorable than they are now. Indeed, the genomic developments spawned by the ongoing biological revolution are increasing the pressure to solve problems that lead to low birthweight, stunting, disorders stemming from micronutrient deficiencies, and other manifestations of undernutrition.
