Research Project: Biomarkers of Nutritional Status Resulting from Altered Food Composition **Location:
                            Children's Nutrition Research Center** 2021 Annual Report **Objectives**
                                

The objective of the proposed research is to develop biomarkers of nutritional status as affected by nutrient content of foods produced under changing environmental conditions. **Approach**
                                

This will be accomplished through the approaches of mass spectroscopy of plasma constituents including nutrients, metabolites, or other compounds; development of new measurement technologies; or, mathematical approaches to collectively analyze patterns of nutrients in biological fluids. The proposed research will address Problem Statement 1A: Determine Agricultural Practices that Influence the Nutritional Status of Americans. **Progress Report**
                                

Developed position description for ARS research scientist positions focused on precision nutrition and precision agriculture. Recruiting efforts were not successful. Additional position descriptions are under development. **Accomplishments**
