EFFoST2024 will explore the theme 'Future Food Systems: Innovation through Progress at Scientific Interfaces‘. This is further examined in the below listed five main conference sub-themes.
1. Human interface
- Food–nutrition–health
- Food for target groups
- Simulation of food human interactions (in vivo, in vitro, in silico)
- Sensory and consumer science
- Food allergens and contaminants
2. Raw material interface
- New food processing strategies
- Innovative food sources
- Food (ingredient) interactions
- From farm to factory
3. Micro-organism interface
- Predictive power of the food microbiome
- Food fermentations
- Microbial safety and spoilage
- Hygienic design
4. Sustainability interface
- Water and energy use
- Food packaging
- Reducing food loss and waste
- Side-stream valorization
5. Computer science interface
- Sensors
- Modelling, simulation and prediction
- Foodomics, big data and AI
