The UNC Nutrition Obesity Research Center (NORC) is one of only twelve centers in the country funded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) that is specifically designed to support nutritional sciences and obesity research. The NORC, housed in the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health and the School of Medicine, works to combine basic nutrition research, human clinical trials, community based interventions and population studies, in an effort to answer questions about how the foods we eat affect our bodies. |

Name Change for Research Center. In an effort to combine currently funded nutritional sciences and obesity research centers, NIDDK has officially changed our center's name to the UNC Nutrition Obesity Research Ceneter (NORC). While the name of our Center has changed, we will continue to provide the same cutting edge services for nutrition and obesity related research to our investigators.
