... There is a marked contrast in the world today between those who are malnourished and those suffering from nutritional diseases due to excessive intake. The research challenges converge in both cases. At INRA, we are convinced we can play a leading role in this area and we must continue to promote our ability to generate scientific knowledge and sponsor institutional research. To achieve this, we are developing partnerships in France and throughout Europe with other actors in public and private sector research, working in our areas of competence. We are thus doubling our efforts to achieve the coherence, visibility and competitiveness of research in food and nutrition, and continue to manage the networks which have gradually built up over the past twenty years with our national, regional and industrial partners".
