Laboratory of Food Biochemistry at SLACA 2021!

---

The largest congress on Food Science in Latin America, SLACA, reached its 26th year of existence and in its 14th edition brought as its theme the "Impact of Food Science on Health and Disease". The Symposium had the participation of several researchers from Brazil and the world who presented and discussed several current themes in the food area.

With an always very active participation in Slaca editions, the research group of the Laboratory of Food Biochemistry had the opportunity to share results about the works developed by Scientific Initiation, Masters and Doctorate students.
