Cereal Chemistry Focus Issue Seeks Submissions on Cereal Grains for Nutrition and Health!

The Cereal Chemistry 2020 focus issue will consider the relationship between cereal grains (including grains from niche crops) and nutrition and health. “As people are advised to eat more plant foods, especially whole grains, the challenge for food scientists is to provide palatable and convenient foods that retain their nutritional potency,” says guest editor Mary Ellen Camire. “This special issue will bring together scientists at the forefront of grains for human health research.”

Consider submitting review articles and shorter views and opinions pieces, as well as original research papers, on

• The importance of grains in whole dietary patterns
• Differentiation between different carbohydrates in grains with respect to physiological functionality and health
• Microbially accessible grain carbohydrates
• FODMAPS
• The role of grain-based carbohydrates across the lifespan
• Personalized nutrition

Focus issue guest editors are Anne Birkett (Kellogg Co.), Mary Ellen Camire (University of Maine), Mike Gidley, (University of Queensland), and Vicky Solah (Curtin University).

Submission deadline is May 31, 2019. The focus issue publication is scheduled for January 2020, but papers will be published online directly on acceptance. There are no page fees for the first 8 pages, and open access publication is available.
