Topics of interest for submission include any topics related to:

1. Food Science and Nutritional Biology

This pillar focuses on the composition of food and how the human body interacts with it.

Food Chemistry and Composition

Macromolecules: Carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.

Micronutrients: Vitamins, minerals, and bioavailability.

Food additives, preservatives, and antioxidants.

Food Microbiology

Fermentation processes (yeast, bacteria, and molds).

Foodborne pathogens and toxicology.

Probiotics and the human gut microbiome.

Nutritional Physiology

Metabolic pathways and energy expenditure.

Dietary impacts on gene expression (Nutrigenomics).

Food allergies and metabolic disorders.

2. Agricultural Biology and Biotechnology

This section covers how we grow food and the biological innovations used to improve yields and resilience.

Plant and Animal Biology

Photosynthesis and crop physiology.

Selective breeding and genetic diversity.

Livestock health and reproductive biology.

Agricultural Biotechnology

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and CRISPR technology.

Bio-pesticides and bio-fertilizers.

Tissue culture and synthetic biology (e.g., lab-grown meat).

Soil Science (Pedology)

Soil microbiology and nutrient cycling (Nitrogen and Phosphorus cycles).

Soil erosion and regeneration techniques.

Hydroponics, aeroponics, and vertical farming biology.

3. Environmental Impact and Sustainability

Ecology and Ecosystem Services

Pollination biology and the decline of bees.

Biodiversity loss due to monoculture.

Impact of invasive species on local food webs.

Environmental Chemistry and Pollution

Pesticide runoff and eutrophication of water bodies.

Microplastics in the food chain.

Heavy metal bioaccumulation in seafood.

Climate Change and Food Security

Carbon sequestration in agricultural soils.

The greenhouse gas footprint of different diets (e.g., plant-based vs. beef).

Adaptive strategies for drought-resistant crops.
