Edinburgh International Science Festival - Choosing Food: Past, Present and Future
-
This is a past event
Join experts from the University of Aberdeen explore the factors influencing our food choices and how they could change in a challenging, and hungry, future.
Since Paleolithic times, when cooking was discovered, the preparation and eating of food has been central to our sense of community and identity. But being able to choose what we eat is only a very recent luxury, still only really available to the developed world.
Join a diverse panel of nutritionists, curators, neuroendocrinologists and social scientists to investigate our food choices through the ages.
