Conference theme: Hydrocolloids in the Food System: From sustainable ingredients to healthy foods
The Food System is the combination of all factors ensuring food security and nutrition in an environmentally sustainable way and within it Hydrocolloids play an important role.
There has been a tremendous response to the Call for Abstracts and as a consequence it has unfortunately not been possible to include all the Abstracts submitted for oral presentations in the formal lecture programme. We have had to designate some as 5 minute flash oral presentations with the option of also presenting a poster and others as posters only. It may be possible to promote some to oral presentations in the lecture programme at a later date if spaces become available.
Posters should be a maximum of 90cm in height and 120cm in width (equivalent to AO paper size). There will be prizes for the best three Posters as judged by a panel of Academics and Industrialists.
All Oral and Poster presenters are encouraged to submit manuscripts for inclusion in the Conference Proceedings which will be published as a Special Issue of the Food Hydrocolloids Journal. Professors Markus Stieger and Elke Scholten are the Guest Editors and all manuscripts will be subjected to the normal peer review process. The opening date for submissions is May 1st 2025 and the closing date is November 30th 2025.
