WSMS December Talk, Food is for Life - not just for Christmas
Tuesday 4 December 2012
As scientists you will be familiar with using science in your area of expertise but as Christmas comes up and thoughts turn to festive food and what to have for the dinner, have you thought about how science is used to prepare the food you see in the supermarket?
This talk will focus on looking at food under the microscope and how using science, especially microscopy, helps the food industry develop new products or improve ones already out there. Examples of light and electron microscopy of foods will be combined with some examples to taste!
