One of the major problems in food safety and security regulation is that many existing laws, rules and guidelines are originated from decades-old data and methods, several of which are not even relevant to human exposure. Our rationale for organising the 1st GHI World Congress is to generate a platform to present and implement the most suitable assays for food safety and security assessment within different fields — from chemistry and microbiology, to genetic toxicology and genomics — throughout entire processes, from farm to fork.

The outcomes of the Congress can pave the way toward more accurate detection of human risk to dietary components and thus, improve human health status. GHI intends to produce a declaration that is agreed by all participants which calls for and establishes a target to change regulations within a specified time based on available
