BEST4FOOD Center count on a team with more than 100 experts involved in different frameworks of the ‘Food and Health’ sector. The added value of the center is the selection of several players with skills in problems solving through a multidisciplinary approach in order to cover all the different aspects of research and services.
The scientific and the management boards will select the most appropriate experts for each research project to better fulfil the commercial need and the technical requests.
