Conducting research and collecting data are important, but translating the results into impactful solutions for the public is key. By partnering with communities, early and often, we can share precision nutrition information that is relevant and valuable to specific populations. We also work in tandem with researchers, program delivery specialists, Extension, and community leaders to develop evidence-based solutions that address the needs of specific populations, particularly in underserved communities.
