Dietary assessment

We aim to develop new methodologies and tools (including artificial intelligence) that allow the assessment of dietary intake and dietary behaviour. State of the art assessment of dietary exposure is crucial to the research lines and nutritional sciences in general.
Focus
- Development of databases for food composition, cost of diet, and environmental footprint
- Standardisation of assessment methods for habitual intake and nutritional adequacy
- Development and validation of innovative indicators and assessment tools of food intake
