International research collaborations and networks

We are members in several international networks and collaborative projects, related to our research fields in cereal dietary fibres, phytochemicals, and bioactive food components.

 

Enlarged view: Healthgrain logo

Healthgrain works towards the improved utilization of the health-promoting properties of grain products along the entire production chain, as well as for a better understanding of the health-promoting mechanisms of wholegrain and cereal fibre based foods. external pagewww.healthgrain.org

POSITIVe logo

POSITIVe specifically addresses inter-individual variation in bioavailability and physiological responses to consumption of plant food bioactives in relation to cardiometabolic endpoints. This Action will coordinate a multidisciplinary and multisectorial European network, harness and combine the currently fragmented knowledge and ensure the optimal translation of findings into applications.  external pageNetwork website

Enlarged view: phytohub

PhytoHub is a freely available electronic database containing detailed information about dietary phytochemicals and their human metabolites. Around 1,000 dietary phytochemicals will be included which represent all the polyphenols, terpenoids, alkaloids and other plant secondary metabolites commonly ingested with the human diet. Laboratory of Food Biochemistry or ETH Zurich is providing the expertise in phytosterols in this database. external pagehttp://phytohub.eu/
