The US University of California (UC) Davis and Novo Nordisk Foundation’s BioInnovation Institute have launched the Amplified African Foods (AAF) collaborative project. In this partnership, scientists will develop nutrient-rich interventions based on local cultural diets to help prevent malnutrition and stunting among children in Africa. In the project, the BioInnovation Institute and UC Davis’ Innovation Institute for Food and Health (IIF) plan to launch a company that delivers precision nutrition across Africa to enhance the nutritional value of culturally favored meals.
