Message from Norman Rosenblum, INMD Scientific Director
May 2021
I am pleased to announce the release of the new CIHR Institute of Nutrition, Metabolism and Diabetes (INMD) Strategic Plan 2021 – 2026. I wish to thank the INMD Institute Advisory Board for their energy and enthusiasm in creating this new Strategic Plan, as well as INMD partners who contributed input and ideas to help shape it
The vision of the new INMD Strategic Plan is to catalyze world-leading research that promotes optimal and equitable nutrition and metabolic health outcomes for Canadians.
This vision will drive this ambitious Strategic Plan that spans discovery, therapeutics, and translation with a particular focus on heterogeneity, health equity, and capacity within INMD’s research community. This strategic plan consists of 4 priorities illustrated below:
Long description
Nutritional and Metabolic Health
- Priority 1 Accelerate Discovery
- Identify and intervene in the physiological and molecular mechanisms of nutritional and metabolic health and disease
- Priority 2 Harness Discovery and Diversity
- Generate precision prevention, diagnosis and treatment strategies in nutrition and metabolic health
- Priority 3 Pursue Health Equity
- Develop preventive strategies through social, environmental and policy interventions that reduce nutritional and metabolic health inequities and improve community and population health
- Priority 4 Support Capacity
- Support development of Canadian research capacity towards improved nutritional and metabolic health outcomes
To achieve this vision, INMD will bring together stakeholders to identify shared objectives to co-create meaningful and effective initiatives and maximize opportunities for the mobilization of knowledge.
