Baylor College of Medicine
The USDA/ARS Children\u2019s Nutrition Research Center (CNRC) at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston is one of six USDA/ARS Centers in its Human Nutrition Research Program. The CNRC is the largest nutrition research center in the Nation devoted to the optimal nutritional requirements of pregnant and lactating women and to the related requirements for infants and children from conception through adolescence. It is also likely the largest such center in the world with this expansive pediatric nutrition research focus. Its diverse research program encompasses fundamental plant studies in its research greenhouse to human medical nutrition through its faculty members who practice at Texas Children\u2019s Hospital, the country\u2019s largest children\u2019s hospital, that is a fully integrated partner joined to the Center via overpasses and tunnels linking the institutions. \nThe greater Houston community and the nation will benefit from the research and recommendations being developed in our five primary \u201cresearch directive\u201d areas:\n1. Nutritional metabolism in mothers, infants, and children\n2. Pediatric clinical nutrition\n3. Childhood obesity prevention\n4. Developmental determinants of obesity in infants and children\n5. Molecular, cellular, and regulatory aspects of nutrition during development

Procurement pursuit intelligence
This project has been enacted. FFID maps funded projects to likely downstream procurement channels — including recipient portals, state and local systems, agency programs, and Grants.gov. SAM.gov is monitored, but many CPF/CDS-funded opportunities appear first through recipient or state/local procurement systems.

Multiple channels — see below
FFID could not determine the procurement channel with high confidence for this agency and category combination. Check the agency program page, Grants.gov, the state procurement portal, and the recipient's own procurement page.
Agency not specifically mapped. Check Grants.gov and the recipient's own procurement portal.
Discovery sources to check manually
Discovery onlyThese portals are not verified matches for this project. SAM.gov and state portals are general search starting points — not confirmed procurement channels.
Not project-specific. Portal coverage varies by state. Check all channels manually.
