International Virtual Conference On Food Digestion

6 May 2021 7 May 2021 Dr André Brodkorb and Dr Linda Giblin and the INFOGEST research network are hosting a Virtual International Conference on Food Digestion on the 6th and 7th of May.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the physical International Conference on Food Digestion in Cork was postponed to May 2022 (https://www.icfd2022.com/). This virtual event is to give researchers, especially PhD students, an opportunity to present their results on an international stage.

The event will take place on 6 May, 12pm to 6pm (Dublin) and 7 May, 7.30am to 2pm (Dublin). The conference will cover six themes relating to food digestion:

1. In vitro digestion models
2. Food interaction and meal digestion
3. Absorption models
4. Lipid digestion
5. Starch digestion
6. In silico models

The 7^th session will be a live session from Australia and New Zealand on the morning of Day 2. A special session of flash presentations, hosted by Teagasc post-doctoral researchers, will be held on the 6^th May, from 6pm-8pm (Dublin).
