The Horizon2020-funded WELCOME2 project will upgrade the research potential of the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research PAS and ensure its full participation in the European Research Area. Through the project, a researcher with high leadership skills - ERA Chair holder - and his/her scientific group will be recruited to lead interdisciplinary research that will lay the groundwork for a Centre of Excellence in Nutrigenomics.

Research

WELCOME2-driven research will focus on the application of omics technologies to life sciences, particularly nutrigenomics, to investigate the effects of food and food constituents on gene expression in human and animal, and how genetic variations may affect development of diet-related diseases. These studies will nurture integration of IARFR’s food and reproductive biology research lines and further advance its current omics-based research to optimise health and well-being.
