MoniQA was introduced and represented at this 3 day symposium by Karl Beler from BOKU (University of Natural Resources and Life Science, Vienna, Austria). The symposium was organized by "The International Association for Cereal Science and Technology (ICC)", the "Beijing Food and Research Institute (BFRI)" and the "Food Science Editorial Department (FSED)" and took place in Beijing, China from August 5-7, 2010.
More than 500 participants from top research institutes and universities (mainly from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan) as well as about 20 foreign researchers attended this international symposium and gave an overview of their current research results. All basic research areas of food science were covered during the 3 days: cereals and oils; meats; dairy foods; aquatic foods; eggs foods; processing, storage and transportation of fruits and vegetables; food biotechnology; functional foods and natural products; food additives as well as food safety.
SCI indexed Journals in English were presented and the participants of the symposium received useful tips for their publications. They also had the opportunity to discuss with the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry and the Food and Bioprocess Technology. The simultaneous translation of the symposium in English and Chinese enabled all participants to follow the presentations. A Food Enterprise visit and a 4 day Technical Tour to Inner Mongolia and the Shanxi Province completed the Symposium and demonstrated the scenic and cultural beauties of China.
