BACKGROUND


Human Variability refers to the underlying differences in each individual’s metabolism and nutritional requirements, due to the vast range of genomic and physiological characteristics. Environmental factors also play an important role, including prenatal conditions such as the ethnicity and health status of the mother, and subsequent factors such as diet, health and disease status, geographical location and culture.


In recent years, scientific studies on Human Variability have advanced tremendously, with the “Omics” technologies (metabolomics, genomics, proteomics, etc.) in the forefront. This has led to the development of “personalized or precision medicine” targeted at individuals. There is science now showing potential extension to Personalized Nutrition. These sciences will have a significant impact on the food supply and suppliers, as well as implications for public health.


OBJECTIVES


This 1-day symposium aims to:


    

  • To share the latest science and research on human variability, health and nutrition requirements of relevance to the Asian population
    • 

  • To consider potential applications of personalization of health interventions and products in the fields of food and nutrition
    • 

  • To explore opportunities for research, development and innovation in the food supply to achieve individual and public health benefits
    • 

  • To discuss issues relating to regulatory framework and oversight, consumer communications and guidance on personalized nutrition
    •

BACKGROUND


Population based studies in food and nutrition have been essential in contributing to overall human well-being. However improved understanding of ‘individual human variation’ in nutrient requirements has awaited advancements in nutrigenomics and the mathematical and social sciences. For example, the ‘omics sciences (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics)’ are providing new insight and understanding that can be applied to personalised nutrition with the ambitious objective of one-to-one product design.


This 1-day conference will explore the nature of individual human variation in response to food choice and nutrient intake and how that may initiate a new era of opportunity for personalised nutrition will also be explored.


OBJECTIVES


This 1-day conference aims to:


    

  • Consider the evidence and nature of variability in human nutrition requirements and metabolic response
    • 

  • Review current understanding of variation in the human genome with potential impacts on population and personal nutrition
    • 

  • Address the integration of the 'omics sciences' and insights from medical studies which have led to an increased understanding of personalised health
    • 

  • Consider the potential implications for consumers and food supply
    • 

  • Discuss how the regulatory environment may need to evolve and adapt to the changing world of personalisation
    • 

  • Provide the opportunity to engage in discussion around the translation of these recent developments into a new scientific paradigm
    •

BACKGROUND


Innovation and new technologies including artificial intelligence, digitalization, genomics, and the Internet of Things (IoT) are advancing our knowledge, connectivity and the web of communication. These technologies can be harnessed for better understanding of nutritional status, food intake and physical activity patterns.


With greater access to new technologies and information, consumers are increasingly aware of health-related aspects of food and diet. This has also enabled consumers to take initiatives, make smarter choices, and adopt more health-focused food consumption patterns. On the other hand, the convergence of innovation, conflicting information and the abundance of food choices have led to increased concerns on overall health and well-being, as well as environmental impact and sustainability.


Join us at this science symposium, where we explore the definition of smart eating and sustainability. The meeting will also discuss how technologies have revolutionized the agri-food industry and can be further harnessed to improve our populations’ health and nutritional well-being.


OBJECTIVES


This 1-day symposium aims to:


    

  • Understand and explore the definition of smart eating
    • 

  • Discuss the opportunities and challenges in the use of technology in smart eating
    • 

  • Discuss how new technologies can be applied to enhance sustainable food production and reduce food waste
    • 

  • Provide a platform to discuss consumer perceptions and acceptance of such new technologies, and multi-stakeholder partnerships in the advancement of new technologies in smart eating
    •

Background


Risk communication is a very important component in the food safety risk analysis framework. The main objective of food safety risk communication is to increase understanding among various stakeholders regarding the rationale behind the decisions taken to assess hazards and manage food safety risks and to help people make more informed judgments about the food safety hazards and risks they face in their lives. Therefore, developing an effective risk communication framework is not solely based on scientific knowledge, but also involves consumer perceptions, the relationship between consumers and risk communicators, as well as regulatory strategies on food safety.

	
This two-day workshop aims to


    

  • shares about knowledge on the basics, Codex guidelines, and the key considerations of food safety risk communication
    • 

  • introduce the new concept of food information communication
    • 

  • highlight the importance to educate the public based on science
    • 

  • emphasize the significance of partnership among the stakeholders
    • 

  • discuss the challenges and opportunities in food safety risk communication among the ASEAN countries
    •

BACKGROUND


Human Variability refers to the underlying differences in each individual’s metabolism and nutritional requirements, due to the vast range of genomic and physiological characteristics. Environmental factors also play an important role, including prenatal conditions such as the ethnicity and health status of the mother, and subsequent factors such as diet, health and disease status, geographical location and culture.


In recent years, scientific studies on Human Variability have advanced tremendously, with the “Omics” technologies (metabolomics, genomics, proteomics, etc.) in the forefront. This has led to the development of “personalized or precision medicine” targeted at individuals. There is science now showing potential extension to Personalized Nutrition. These sciences will have a significant impact on the food supply and suppliers, as well as implications for public health.


OBJECTIVES


This 1-day symposium aims to:


    

  • To share the latest science and research on human variability, health and nutrition requirements of relevance to the Asian population
    • 

  • To consider potential applications of personalization of health interventions and products in the fields of food and nutrition
    • 

  • To explore opportunities for research, development and innovation in the food supply to achieve individual and public health benefits
    • 

  • To discuss issues relating to regulatory framework and oversight, consumer communications and guidance on personalized nutrition
    •
