  • Our long-term goal is to improve the insight on how various dietary components influences the risk and prognosis of conditions and diseases, in order to prevent diseases and to improve life expectancies for those already diagnosed.
  • Our main research is on frailty and on cancer, particularly breast and colon cancer.
  • Updating the food composition database in KBS (Kostberegingssystem) is a continuous challenge.
