Objectives

  • To develop a quantitative physiologic model that represents the major causal dependencies relating nutritional status and enteric pathogen exposure to macronutrient and energy availability.
  • To apply the model to better understand and predict effective interventions for growth faltering in children in low- and middle-income countries.
