The Origins and Benefits of Biologically Active Components in Human Milk Conference

Launched in 2015, this FASEB Science Research Conference (SRC) explores the origins and benefits of bioactive components that are present in human milk.

The conference brings together researchers, clinicians, and educators working in the field of human milk bioactives in academia, industry, NGOs, or government agencies.

The program’s main themes include:

1) How milk bioactive are synthesized in the human mammary gland

2) How specific milk bioactives like oligosaccharides and the milk fat globule membrane affect immune and brain development

3) How new technologies drive research and development.
