Abstract(s)

This Workshop aims to gather researchers, academia, and industry and health professionals to discuss the latest updates related to risk-benefit assessment of foods and its importance for food safety and nutrition. It includes two days sessions with keynote lectures given by renowned scholars on the area of food safety, risk assessment and riskbenefit assessment providing a scenario of national and international ongoing activities on these areas. A videoconference with the European Food and Safety Authority (EFSA) will also promote the discussion on these issues. The balance between risks and benefits is of interest to food authorities developing food policy and consumer advice, to business developing new food products, and to consumers considering dietary changes. This workshop is organized within the EFSA Partnering Grant Project RiskBenefit4EU “Partnering to strengthen the Risk Benefit Assessment within EU using a holistic approach” (GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2017/01-GA02), coordinated by INSA. It aims to strengthen the EU capacity to perform risk-benefit assessment of foods.
