* Projects are classified according to the following focus areas: (1) Health outcomes projects are focused on associations between metabolites and diseases/other health outcomes; (2) Exposures and genetics projects are focused on the interrelationships among exposures, or genetics and metabolites; (3) Metabolite(s)-focused projects will assess the interrelationships between exposures or genetics and specific metabolites (or classes of metabolites) and their role on health outcomes; (4) Methods projects will address analytical, platform, harmonization, statistical or other methodologic topics.
