Danone Nutricia Research in Utrecht, The Netherlands, is a science-driven and consumer-led research organization that specializes in Early Life Nutrition and Advanced Medical Nutrition. We create formulas that provide clinically substantiated growth, development or health benefits to vulnerable consumers – infants, toddlers, elderly and patients. For this purpose we perform research into the complex interaction between nutrition, biological processes and disease mechanisms in the human body. We work in multi-disciplinary teams ranging from immunologists, biologists and microbiologists, to neuroscientists and metabolism experts. We enjoy support from a network of international partners that includes research institutes, universities, hospitals, and industrial suppliers. There is a strong focus on the elderly population and nutritional needs in chronic disease. We see enormous potential in disease targeted nutrition; focusing on improving clinical outcomes by helping to delay the progression of specific conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease.
