DTU National Food Institute is working to find new sources of plant-based foods, including extracting protein from side streams in food production and optimizing the utilization of the plant-based resources of the sea. The research also focuses on the food safety of particularly new plant-based foods, and the Institute plays a key role in integrating sustainability into dietary and nutrient recommendations and assessing both the health and sustainability aspects of a plant-based diet.
You can learn more about these topics and much more at the DTU National Food Institute conference on plant-based foods on 14 September 2023.
The day provides a unique opportunity to gain new knowledge, engage in dialogue with researchers and advisers from DTU National Food Institute, and experience some of the unique laboratory facilities where the foods of the future are developed.
