DESCRIPTION:The adulteration of food for economic gain is a global phenomen
 on and rising in severity due to the globalization of the world’s supply c
 hain and the economic crisis caused by the invasion of Ukraine. A growing 
 number of scientific weapons are being developed\, validated\, and impleme
 nted to detect and deter fraud. These include remote testing capabilities\
 , untargeted analytical techniques\, and the application of artificial int
 elligence to help interpret scientific data and produce predictive models 
 of where fraud is most likely to occur. This seminar will give an overview
  of the work being undertaken at Queen’s University Belfast on the capture
  and exploitation of data to fight food fraud\, and outline opportunities 
 to collaborate.\n\nThe Virtual Seminar Series on Food Authenticity is orga
 nized by researchers and students at ɬÀï·¬ and the University of Guelph.
