Deadline 6th November

This call has been developed to accelerate progress by encouraging new thinking on important challenges in the nutrition field. Focused workshops will enable specific nutrition “hot topics” needing urgent attention to be addressed in an agile and timely manner.

SHARe have been successful in securing funding to liaise with businesses and organisations who are interested in eating behaviour and foods, nutraceuticals and other products designed to enhance satiety (help consumers feel fuller for longer).  From Sept 2019 we will be reaching out to external partners seeking ways we can work together to better understand the way we eat, why we overeat and ways we can combat the growing obesity crisis.

If you would like to get involved contact Jenny Paxman (j.r.paxman@shu.ac.uk) to discuss setting up a company visit to Sheffield Hallam University.

Colleagues in SHARe Cluster have a long history of working with businesses and organisations.  We are keen to chat to potential industry partners and to showcase our methods and facilities that might help you understand your product or explore the potential of a novel ingredient.  Check out some of our previous work by clicking on the Our Research tab.

SHARe colleagues: if you are keen to engage with a specific business, organisation or partner to explore opportunities to work together on appetite regulation research please get in touch.  We’d love to help fund your external engagement!  Contact Jenny Paxman: j.r.paxman@shu.ac.uk for details.
