The Western Human Nutrition Research Center, the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Grant on infant nutrition, and the West Coast Metabolomics Center represent initiatives that foster collaborations among various aspects of the University for the purpose of innovative research, but also to develop applications for funding and the potential to pursue larger initiatives in the future.
