Members of the NC 1196 Regional project met with various USDA personnel to discuss possible research proposals that might be submitted to USDA and to learn more about USDA's research priorities. On the afternoon of that same day, the group met with various NIH personnel to discuss potential research topics and to learn more about NIH priorities.
On the second day of the meeting, project members began to outline ideas for proposals that could be worked on in the coming year. A discussion of participation in a poverty workshop that would be connected with food insecurity was agreed upon. New officers were chosen and the group agreed to hold next year's regional project meeting at the University of Missouri.
