FNS-Cloud

🍫🍕🍟Ultra-processed foods #UPFs are in the #spotlight, after a variety of adverse health outcomes was hughlighted by a recent umbrella review. Indeed, #UPFs present an important proportion of daily energy intake in many countries. It is important to mention that Horizon 2020 FNS-Cloud project addressed challenges of the monitoring of processed foods in the food supply, and that easy-to-use tools are today available for researchers to conduct food monitoring studies. ℹ️Nutrition institute established #CLAS food monitoring programme in 2015, which is now used in various countries by research organisations and food authorities.

At the FNS-Cloud Final Event last September in Brussels, Ignacio Blanquer from the EOSC Association presented how the #European #OpenScience #Cloud can benefit user communities. 🎥 Watch the recording at: https://lnkd.in/ePfyTAeC

At the FNS-Cloud Final Event last September in Brussels, Anton Ellenbroek from FAO shared his experience from the Blue-Cloud 2026 project about how cloud solutions can benefit user communities. 🎥 Watch the recording at: https://ow.ly/87NF50PVxiR

The #Microbiome #Demonstrator from the FNS-Cloud project aimed to present workflows that bring together food and nutrition 🍎 data generated in diet and microbiome studies 🩺 stored in fragmented repositories. To build these workflows, we used tools dedicated to FAIRifiation to facilitate analyses of microbiomes, which ultimately improve our understanding of the interactions between the diet and the microbiome. 👉Watch the recording of the dedicated hands-on session at the FNS-Cloud Final Event last September in Brussels: https://ow.ly/YRu750PVwZ3

#FAIRSPACE is an open-source research data management platform 🌐 that adheres to the #FAIRprinciples (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability). It was customised to become the FNS-Cloud metadata browser that allows #microbiome and food data exploration within public resources.📚 It brings datasets from different repositories together and links them at sample level. 👉https://ow.ly/fQzS50PVwR6 👉We also have an online course to guide you on how to use the tool!
