Omics in the rapidly developing field of alternative proteins: innovation and safety
Join this webinar to hear from Dr Lin Qingsong, Principle Research Fellow, Director, Protein and Proteomics Centre, National University of Singapore and be informed about up-to-date risk assessment considerations of alternative proteins.
About this webinar
Alternative proteins are gaining momentum as a viable and sustainable option to traditional animal-based proteins. In this webinar, we will focus on the applications and potential of omics in key research areas, which drive innovation and food safety in alternative proteins.
Learning points:
- Be informed about up-to-date risk assessment considerations of alternative proteins
- Understand how multi-omics can study novel foods (alternative proteins)
- Understand how omics output can help in improving and creating new food safety guidelines to ensure safe alternative proteins for consumers
Technical highlights:
- Protein extraction and proteomics digestion considerations for alternative protein samples
- Data processing and databases for discovery proteomics in novel foods
