Notes
[Global Health & Wellbeing] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $5,307,885 over five years to Dalhousie University to support research on human colostrum’s ability to reduce the incidence of neonatal sepsis. Colostrum is produced in the mammary glands early in lactation, prior to mature milk production. This grant will support an analysis of colostrum components to identify the mechanism by which it protects newborns from infection. This is one of two grants we are making to support this work. This falls within our focus area of scientific research.
