Knowing Our Food: The Application of Foodomics for Societal Impact
In this lesson from Module 3 of Foodomics and Society, we welcome Dr. Selena Ahmed, Global Director of the Periodic Table of Food Initiative and Dean of Food EDU, who presents Knowing Our Food: The Application of Foodomics for Societal Impact.
In this lesson, Dr. Ahmed introduces the field of foodomics and describes guiding principles for applying omics technologies and data as tools for improving human and planetary health. As you watch this lesson, think about how an expansive and comprehensive view of food composition data can connect food, people, and the planet.
Questions to consider as you watch this lesson include:
- How do we bridge foodomics data with other ways of knowing to reinforce these connections?
- How can we reorient foodomics technologies and innovations to benefit people and the planet?
- And why do you think societal context is important for the application of foodomics for human and planetary health?
