Draft Programme, 14 – 16 November 2012
The programme will be finalised based on the submitted abstracts for oral presentations
The format of the symposium includes invited lectures, short communications on selected abstracts and poster sessions.
This three-day conference will be structured around the following four concept areas:
1) Nanotechnology and emerging technologies,
2) Sustainable food contact materials,
3) Risk Assessment of complex mixtures and
4) Effects of food processing and packaging treatments.
The first three sessions will all cover toxicological and analytical aspects as well as new developments in these areas. The last session on effects of food processing and packaging treatments will address experts working at the interface between food processing and packaging. We would like to encourage experts who are involved in projects within the 7th European Commission Framework Programme to present mid-term or final results of relevant projects.
