On 29 September, the Arla Food for Health (AFH) annual conference will take place at an Arla location in Aarhus - either Sønderhøj 14, Viby eller 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.

Researchers working within all aspects of ingredient development, food science, food technology and health are invited to submit an abstract to the conference.
