Past Events
Workshop ‘How Can Bioassays Help to Assess the Suitability & Applicability of TTC as a Prioritization Tool for Unidentified NIAS in FCMs’
08/11/2018 – 09/11/2018
Brussels, Belgium
Seminar on Process-Related Compounds and Natural Toxins
18/09/2018
Parma, Italy
As consumers are often exposed to naturally occurring contaminants and process-related compounds in their diets, it is crucial to investigate how these compounds are formed in order to improve how we detect and measure them and to assess their safety. This seminar, organised by the ILSI Europe Process-Related Compounds Task Force (PRC TF) tackled subjects relating to such substances, particularly focusing on assessing their impact on human health.
Workshop Holistic Approaches to Develop Alternative Strategies for Animal Testing
06/09/2018 – 07/09/2018
Brussels, Belgium
During the last decade, a shift in the mind-set of experts in toxicology and related sciences has been noticeable towards a science which is no longer only based on deterministic whole-animal approaches. The different stakeholders in nutrition and food safety are however currently not aligned on when animal studies are mandatory or when they can be replaced by alternative approaches.
Protected: Symposium on ‘Nutrition for the Ageing Brain: Moving Towards Clinical Applications’
30/08/2018 – 31/08/2018
Madrid, Spain
This symposium was specifically focused on clinical aspects and novel strategies developed to determine whether diet and nutrients have efficacy in individuals affected by dementia and other neurodegenerative conditions.
