In 2015, the Foundation awarded to Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology for Closed Grant to conduct a research with specific theme named Early Life Nutrition. The background of this theme was to identify the prenatal exposures, such as placental function and maternal over- or under-nutrition, may be associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases in the offspring, either as a child or adult and alterations in nutritional, metabolic, immune and hormonal milieu in-utero can have profound long-term effects on offspring.
