The IMGC’s virtual ‘ROS’ (roll up one’s sleeves) workshop focuses on the translational issues in milk science, identifies key hurdles to scientific development and recruits innovative solutions from a broad range of scientific disciplines.
The first two hours of the virtual workshop are dedicated to oral presentations followed by a 1-hour interactive panel discussion with attendees. The goal is for participants to come away with a better understanding of bringing the discoveries of science to practice as concepts and products for human health.
- Genes, milk composition and properties
- Milk components and function from various animal breeds
- Small milk components: metabolites, oligosaccharides, peptides and vitamins
