Competence Network Food Chain Plus (FoCus)
Collaborative Project
Coordinating institution:
Institute of Human Nutrition and Food Science
The network's aim is to develop research expertise across the value chain of milk. With different approaches we try to explore the relationship between production and consumption of dairy products and their related effects on consumers.
