This webinar series will provide training on utilizing National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to advance nutrition research. NHANES data are a critical component of the nation’s health infrastructure and serve as an important resource for health professionals, policy makers, researchers, the food and supplement industry, commodity groups, and public health departments.
