In recent years, we can see many keywords such as functional foods, a declining birth rate and an aging population, AI, IoT, tailor-made foods, and etc. The researches in advanced fields has undergone drastic changes. In this transition period, we planned a symposium on fundamental research on food engineering in the sense of reaffirming the role of chemical engineering in food engineering research. We hope to have research presentation on food processing method using basic unit operations, analysis method using new method, food evaluation method and etc.
