The conference 9th International Conference on the Application of Magnetic Resonance in Food Science will be held at the Nordic House in Reykjavík on 15-17 September by Matís ohf.
The conference is the ninth in a series of popular conference series, held every two years. It brings together the leading experts in Magnetic Resonance in food research in the world today together with participants from industry and beyond. This time the emphasis is on the use of technology in fish and meat research and how the technology can be used in food production processes in general.
Although nuclear and electronic research is not new, the technology has only been used in food research to a limited extent in Iceland so far. By holding the conference here in Iceland, an attempt is made to introduce the great possibilities and advantages of this technology to Icelandic researchers and industry, thus deepening the understanding of the Icelandic food industry and researchers about the behavior and changes that food undergoes in its production processes.
Paper presented at the conference will also be published in the form of scientific articles in a magnificent conference proceedings, which will be distributed to all participants. The publication is published by the Royal Society of Chemistry in the United Kingdom. All posters presented at the conference will also be published on its website after the conference.
