Metamaterials for Food

Timings: 10:00-16:00

Location: Sheffield Hallam, National Centre of Excellence for Food Engineering (NCEFE)

Metamaterials and metasurfaces present promising solutions to an extraordinarily wide array of enduring challenges within the food industry. They introduce innovative methods for altering mouthfeel sensory experiences, non-invasive content monitoring through to improving food processing capabilities. Yet, the full potential of this field remains largely untapped. This event is designed to unite researchers and industry professionals to address sector-specific needs and explore the solutions that metamaterials can provide. By pooling expertise, we aim to tackle significant challenges together.

This event will focus discussions on how academic and industry stakeholders in the metamaterials for food can work together to access and influence funding for large funding calls. This will focus on workshopping ideas in this space.
