This conference will be one of the big International meetings exclusively dedicated to the field of Advances in Food Science and Technology. The conference will be extremely useful in the sense that it will be attended by hundreds of Food technologists,Chemists, Physicists, nutrition experts, Engineers, doctors and researchers. The goal of the conference emphasizes interdisciplinary research on various types of cooking (such as roasting, smoking, steaming, and oven baking), Such basic food processing involved chemical enzymatic changes to the basic structure of food in its natural form, as well served to build a barrier against surface microbial activity that caused rapid decay.
This symposium will bring together a panel of highly-accomplished experts in the field of Advances in Food Science and Technology and Processing. Talks will encompass basic studies and applications and will address topics of novel issues.  During the three-day conference, we will listen to recognized authorities in the field as they discuss recent advances, difficulties, and breakthroughs in the field of Food Science and Technology. The conference will feature keynote addresses, a number of plenary sessions, invited talks and contributed lectures focusing on specific tenets of Food Science and Technology.  Additionally, there will be several poster sessions, and three best poster presentations will be selected for the awards.
In view of your excellent contributions to the field, we would like to welcome you to give an invited talk at the conference.  The scientific committee of the conference is aware of your published works in this field. We would appreciate if you could e-mail us a one-page abstract of the talk (in the MS Word format) at the earliest to the conference Email ID: food* (Deadline for the submission of abstracts is 1stOctober 2015 and Deadline for the submission of full paper is 1st November 2015). An appropriate title could be decided by you.
