An apple a day keeps the doctor away
EU funded research projects DISCO, TriForC and BacHBerry to be presented at the Plant Omics and Biotechnology for Human Health meeting in Gent
November 21, 2016
Like the proverb, the connection between fruit (or in a broader sense plants) and human well-being is firmly anchored in our mindsets. Plant components have been used for decades as traditional remedies and continue to be of great use in modern medicine.
The use of high value plant products is also at the heart of the DISCO project. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the DISCO coordinator Prof. Paul Fraser presents the projects results at the Plant Omics and Biotechnology for Human Health meeting this week, where a whole plenary session has been dedicated to the three EU projects TriForC, BacHBerry and DISCO.
The Plant Omics and Biotechnology for Human Health meeting takes places from November 21st to 24th, 2016 in Gent, Belgium. Through the meeting the organizers wish to bring together European and International labs working on plant metabolites with nutraceutical and pharmaceutical properties that benefit human health to present the latest developments in the field.
