Research and Innovation Networks

Food and Nutrition Network

We are a collaborative Network that has been established to represent the breadth of research within food and nutrition at Northumbria University.

Northumbria is at the forefront of innovative and novel food and nutrition research. We have a vast array of inspired, cutting-edge research projects. These range from examining the cognitive effects of a good breakfast, the secret of a perfect cup of tea and investigating how cherry juice may boost recovery after running a marathon. State of the art facilities and experienced academic staff mean that we are perfectly equipped to carry out some of the most unique and exciting research there is in this field.

The Network is comprised of clusters which represent our range of food and nutrition research in which our staff are involved. Our aim is to document all activity relating to food and nutrition across the various schools within the University to create a Network which highlights the research and expertise available at Northumbria University.
