Join the Arla Food for Health (AFH) annual conference, which will be held on 29 September in Aarhus and online. The conference consists of both presentations and a poster session, and you now have the opportunity to submit an abstract. You are also welcome, even if you are not yet involved in AFH research.
On 29 September, the Arla Food for Health (AFH) annual conference will take place at an Arla location in Aarhus - either Sønderhøj 14, Viby or Arla Innovation Centre, Agro Food Park 19, Aarhus - and online.
At the conference, researchers from AU and KU will present data from AFH-funded research projects. These projects aim to understand the health effects behind dairy products and ingredients, in vitro, in-vivo and in clinical trials.
In addition, two key note speakers have been invited: Rikard Landberg, Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, and Dariush Mozaffarian, Professor at Tufts University.
Rikard Landberg will talk about dairy products in a personalized sustainable diet, while Dariush Mozaffarian will talk about the effect of dairy products on obesity and cardiometabolic health.
