Project description

This research uses an interdisciplinary approach to improve the quality of nutritional epidemiology research. For this purpose, two tools are developed at different stages of research cycle, reporting guidelines at the publication stage, and ethical framework for priority settings at the initiation phase.
Interventions to ensure the best implementation strategy will be taken, and recommendation of use will be disseminated widely.
The first 2 years of the PhD were funded by the Schlumberger foundation. The present application concerns the second period of the phd research for 2 years.
