It also maintains lists and copies of publications that cite Center support. Importantly, the ABE Core is responsible for long-range planning, including the setting of Core priorities to meet the needs of Center investigators and the evolving challenges of multidisciplinary nutrition and obesity research. Dr. Shuldiner directs the ABE Core and Dr. Goldberg serves as Co-Director. Other members of the ABE Core leadership are Dr. Nanette Steinle (Director of the Enrichment Program), Dr. John Sorkin (Director ofthe BMI Subcore), and Gabriele Ronnett (Co-Director of the P/F Program).
