Overview

The risk assessment of pesticide residues in food is a key element of the EU regulatory framework for plant protection products. This process involves various complexities, from data collection and evaluation to the implementation of new guidance as well as the application and authorisation procedures. To successfully navigate these challenges, it is essential to stay informed about all new developments.

Join the popular Akademie Fresenius Conference “Food Safety and Dietary Risk Assessment” to receive all the latest updates, to meet your peers and to join important discussions in a comfortable conference atmosphere. Reason enough for many participants to attend regularly every year. So don’t miss out to secure your place for this year’s event!

The Conference will be taking place in Dusseldorf on 2 and 3 April 2025.
