Supporting comprehensive foods for health research: A new model

Abstract

Twenty-first century biology will be increasingly multi-disciplinary and multidimensional. Whereas the biology of the 20th century was mainly reductionist, new technologies and new disciplines will address questions from the atomic through the ecosystem to the planetary level. New partnerships will be needed to meet challenges, including involvement of the public sector, state and local government as well as the national government, with significantly increased federal funding for research
