Newton001 Breakfast, diabetes and poverty in Brazil

该提案将通过塞尔吉佩联邦大学和英国利物浦热带医学院（LSTM）之间的合作伙伴关系实施。Gurgel教授和Cuevas教授在传染病研究方面保持了超过15年的合作，包括腹泻，呼吸道感染和结核病。该奖项将为他们的研究所提供一个机会，以发展慢性非传染性疾病的新研究兴趣，这些疾病在巴西越来越被认为是新兴疾病。拟议的伙伴关系将扩大申请人的专业知识，并提供在英国不同背景下开展慢性病研究的机会。我们将把我们的研究专长与塞尔吉佩大学的营养专业知识和利物浦大学（UoL）公共卫生部内的健康不平等相结合，他们已接受支持实施这一建议。

This proposal will be implemented through a partnership between the Federal University of Sergipe and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), UK. Professors Gurgel and Cuevas have maintained more than 15 years collaborations on research on infectious diseases, including diarrhoea, respiratory infections and tuberculosis. This award will provide an opportunity for their institutes to develop new research interests in chronic non-communicable diseases, which are increasingly recognised as emerging diseases in Brazil. The partnership proposed, will expand the expertise of the applicants and provide an opportunity to initiate research in chronic diseases within a different context to the UK. We will combine our research expertise with nutritional expertise at the University of Sergipe and on health inequalities within the Department of Public Health, University of Liverpool (UoL), who have accepted to support the implementation of this proposal.
