The International Nutrition & Diagnostics Conference 2012 was held between the 27-30th August at the Carolinium, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. The aim of this multidisciplinary conference was to bridge the gaps between specialists and fields of science as diverse as nutrition, clinical biochemistry, food technology, analytical chemistry and medicine.
The conference program covered a broad range of topics including functional foods, nutrition and health, nutrition and clinical diagnostics, phytochemicals and natural antioxidants and chemistry and human health.
Food & Function was honoured to be able to sponsor a poster prize at the event which was awarded to Zdeňka Polívková, Petr Šmerák, Hana Demová, and Milan Houška from Charles University and the Food Research Institute, Prague, for their poster on Antimutagenic Effects of Lycopene and Tomato Purée (pictured right receiving their prize), and received a copy of the book Mass Spectrometry & Nutrition Research.
