International Journal of Food Studies

FOREWORD

This issue (the 8^th  - vol 4 | issue 2) includes ten invited papers from the 3^rd International ISEKI_Food Conference - ISEKI_Food 2014 - Bridging Training and Research for Industry and the Wider Community - Food Science and Technology Excellence for a Sustainable Bioeconomy.

The International Journal of Food Studies (IJFS - http://www.iseki-food-ejournal.com) is now indexed in RoMEO, the searchable database of publishers’ copyright and self-archiving policies on the web and in Open Access repositories. Increasingly, universities are insisting authors to archive their research papers in institutional repositories. RoMEO assists the authors finding out the publisher’s copyright rules and conditions about open access. RoMEO - Rights Metadata for Open Archiving – is part of SHERPA Services based at the Centre for Research Communications, University of Nottingham, UK. RoMEO has collaborative relationships with many international partners, who contribute time and effort to developing and maintaining the service. Past funders have included the Wellcome Trust and RLUK – Research Libraries UK. Current RoMEO development is funded by JISC - Joint Information Systems Committee and covers over 22,000 peer-reviewed journals and serials.

We look forward to receive submissions of your work in the field of Food studies in Education, Research and Industry.
