Gary Taubes just announced on his blog that he is starting a research foundation called the Nutrition Science Initiative:
NuSi is a non-profit organization with the mission of reducing the economic and social cost of obesity and its related chronic diseases. We hope to achieve this by facilitating and funding the kind of rigorous, meticulously well-controlled and targeted experimental research that has been conspicuously lacking in nutrition research for the half past century.
HEAR, HEAR!
Oh, and they are hiring…
