The Australian Research Council (ARC) Industrial Transformation Training Centre for Functional Grains (The Functional Grains ITTC) will transform the Australian Grains Industry from a commodity-based industry into a highly efficient industry producing high quality food and feed products that exceed market expectations.
The Centre is supported by the Australian Government, through a $2.15 million ARC grant. The Centre is also supported by industry partners:
The Functional Grains ITTC is an initiative of the Graham Centre for Agricultural Innovation.
Bing Wang is world-renowned for her work on identifying novel compounds that improve cognition. Prof. Wang will assist students to develop new grain-based products that improve cognitive functioning.
We hope that with this cookbook, we can identify international consumer preferences, play a key role in helping to improve future grain storage, enhance human health with the recipes and drinks, improve food end-product quality, identify novel bioactive compounds, train the next generation of food scientists, and build long term collaborative food innovation systems.
