The workshop is geared to meet the needs of science educators working to design
their own experiments in food chemistry as well as those wishing to incorporate
the chemistry of food into classroom or laboratory activities. It will provide
the participants with a basic understanding of the connections between
chemistry and food, using milk as an example food. It includes a limited
lecture with theoretical overview and hands-on activities highlighting
inter-molecular interactions in milk and understanding chemical changes
occurring during preparation of cheese and ice-cream. Participants will receive
resources to plan their own food chemistry experiments.
