About the Conference

The 8th International Food Structure, Digestion and Health Conference (FSDH 2025) will be held from 17–20 November 2025 at CSIRO’s Food Innovation Centre, Melbourne, Werribee, Victoria, Australia. Co-hosted by CSIRO and The Riddet Institute, this globally recognised conference continues its mission to bridge cutting-edge science with real-world nutrition and food system solutions.

This year’s theme — “Science for Tomorrow’s Food Industry Challenges” — focuses on how advances in food structure, digestion, and digital technologies can support the creation of healthier, more sustainable and consumer-accepted food systems. FSDH 2025 brings together researchers, food industry professionals, students, and policymakers to share the latest innovations and foster collaborative approaches for improving human health through food.

With a dynamic program featuring keynote talks, oral and poster presentations, interactive workshops, and expert panel discussions, FSDH 2025 offers a unique platform to explore how the design of food structures, in-mouth processing, and digestive behaviour interact with microbiome, metabolism, and health outcomes in the era of AI and sustainable food innovation.
