MCDONALD'S CORP.: is partnering with the Scripps Research Institute to fund research and programs aimed at preventing childhood obesity. The QSR is donating $2 million to the La Jolla, California-based Scripps Institute, its first-ever initiative to donate money to scientific research. The move comes as McDonald's has been fending off accusations that the company is in part to blame for contributing to overweight children. The research will be under the newly created McDonald's Center for Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity.
