43rd Annual Food Research Conference

[The Food Chain]

This conference, which was hosted by safefood and University College Dublin, was held in December 2014 at UCD. The keynote speakers were: Prof Colin Hill of University College Cork; Prof Dolores O’Riordan, Director of the

Institute of Food and Health at University College Dublin; Dr Mark Fenelon, Head of the Food Chemistry & Technology Department at Teagasc; and Dr Alyson Hill, a lecturer in Human Nutrition and Dietetics at Ulster University. As ever, the conference gave young food researchers a chance to present their work. The conference also included a careers workshop that gave students advice and guidance on careers in the agri-food sector.
