Agilent and Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Hyderabad collaborate to advance scientific frontiers in health and metabolism research

Agilent Technologies and TIFR Hyderabad have joined hands to launch a research center supporting ARUMDA, a key national health initiative. The center will focus on nutrition, metabolism, and aging to help fight malnutrition and lifestyle diseases in India

Hyderabad: Towards strengthening India’s efforts in nutrition and metabolism research, Agilent Technologies and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Hyderabad, have announced a strategic collaboration to support ARUMDA (Advanced Research Unit on Metabolism, Development, and Aging).

This partnership brings together Agilent’s global expertise in analytical science with TIFR’s research endeavors to address the growing burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and malnutrition in the country.

A key outcome of this collaboration is the launch of the Agilent–TIFR Center of Translational Research in Hyderabad. The center will play a pivotal role in supporting the ARUMDA, one of India’s most ambitious government-supported initiatives in human health. ARUMDA is focused on bridging fundamental biology with clinical insights to drive data-driven discovery and inform public health strategies. Agilent’s role centers on enabling this vision through high-performance analytical solutions that support impactful translational research.
