Our conference will be an information-packed day
of presentations and discussions with leading experts involved in food allergy
research, food science, and food labelling regulations. Find out what studies
are under way to unlock the mysteries of food allergy and what treatments may
be on the horizon. Learn how Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency work together to assess food allergen risks in pre-packaged foods and
what progress has been made by international food scientists and researchers to
set threshold levels for food allergens. During the breaks you’ll have a chance
to connect with more than 20 exhibitors who provide services, products, and
information for consumers with food allergies.
