Community on Food Consumer Science
COMFOCUS
Eating unhealthy food is a serious problem in our society causing all sorts of problems like diabetes, heart disease and obesity. There is still too little understood about why consumers make the choices they do. In this project, the partners will carry out networking and joint research to enable the field to adopt the best modern methodologies for researching this issue.
The role of Noldus in COMFOCUS
Across Europe, researchers are working together to better understand consumer behavior and food choices. Noldus will develop innovative new technologies for the objective measurement of the experience of food consumers. During the project NoldusHub was developed and used by researchers for integrating, synchronizing and carrying out advanced analysis of a range of sensor data streams.
Project partners
The COMFOCUS project is led by Wageningen University and has 14 other partners, including Noldus. In the COMFOCUS project, early-career scientists explored surprising new questions. Get an impression of the COMFOCUS project by watching a short video of the conference below.
