Welcome
Welcome to the 55th International Congress of Meat Science and Technology, Meat - Muscle, Manufacturing and Meals
Danish Meat Research Institute (DMRI) and Centre for Advanced Food Studies (LMC) are pleased to invite you to participate in the 55th International Congress of Meat Science and Technology (ICoMST) in Denmark, Copenhagen, in August 16-21, 2009.
The key theme of the 2009 ICoMST in Copenhagen is ‘Meat - Muscle, Manufacturing and Meals’ with focus on disseminating the latest research, innovations and visions within the field of meat science and technology. The congress comprises discussions of scientific and practical approaches, and the-state-of-the-art technology necessary to ensure a high quality production of meat and meat products.
The scientific programme includes invited keynote presentations by outstanding international experts, short lectures and finally a number of posters presented at the poster sessions. Key topics addressed include meat production, muscle biology and biochemistry, manufacturing technology, food safety, eating quality – from gene to gastronomy, and health and meat intake.
The congress intends to bring together scientists from the forefront of all sectors within the meat community, coming either from academia, governmental institutions or industrial companies.
The official language of the congress is English.
