Symposia and Science Cafés: What's the Difference?
Traditional Symposia are aimed at optimal knowledge transfer through five regular 20-minute talks with room for topical questions. Science Cafés consist of two-hour sessions set up to combine shorter talks with more time for debate and discussion.
While Symposia sessions are meant to allow you to come and go between speakers and presentations, Science Cafés are meant for attendees to stay for the entire session to create discussion and debate around the topics presented.
 Agricultural Biotechnology: Considerations to Ensure a Sustainable Future
Tuesday, October 18, 2:30 - 4:30 p.m.
Scientific Initiative: Biotechnology & Sustainability
Organizers: Tandace Scholdberg, USDA-GIPSA, Kansas City, MO, U.S.A.; Brian Beecher, USDA-ARS, Pullman, WA, U.S.A.
Moderators: Tandace Scholdberg, USDA-GIPSA, Kansas City, MO, U.S.A.; Michael Giroux, Montana State University, Bozeman, MT, U.S.A.
Sponsor: Biotechnology Division
Sustainability is a multifaceted concept in agriculture that refers to the ability of a field to produce crops and to maintain productivity, while accomplishing a variety of ecological, economic, and social goals. Environmental problems associated with industrial agriculture can be addressed through sustainable agriculture and more sustainable business practices. Goals for sustainability include increasing the resource use efficiency of natural resources, reducing pressure on habitat, increasing the productivity of farmlands, and sustaining the economic viability of farm operations. Sustainability is achieved when farmers make choices that are ecologically and economically beneficial and increase the long-term efficiency of operations. By increasing yields and making pest control more effective, genetically engineered crops contribute significantly to agricultural sustainability.

In Vitro Digestion Models for Cereals and Cereal-Based Ingredients
Wednesday, October 19, 2:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Scientific Initiatives: Cereal & Polymer Chemistry, Health & Nutrition
Organizers: Teri Paeschke, Cargill Inc., Wayzata, MN, U.S.A.; Susann Bellmann, TNO, Zeist, Netherlands
Moderators: Susann Bellmann, TNO, Zeist, Netherlands; Terry Finocchario, National Starch and Chemical, U.S.A.; Teri Paeschke, Cargill Inc., Wayzata, MN, U.S.A.; Brinda Govindarajan, McDonald's Corp., Oak Brook, IL, U.S.A.
Sponsors: Carbohydrate Division, Nutrition Division
The availability for absorption or the behavior of cereal-based foods and ingredients can be done in vivo, using animal studies or human intervention studies. However, this is expensive, laborious, and time consuming. To minimize efforts, reduce animal experiments, and also simplify procedures, many researches use in vitro digestion models. There is a need to interexchange information about the various approaches within the used and existing in vitro digestion models. This may help to work on standardization and minimum requirements those models should fulfill to appropriately study carbohydrate digestion and the availability for absorption of associated other macro- and micronutrients. Further, exchanging research results as obtained with various in vitro methods would strengthen the discussion on their relevance and/or importance.
