Cross-cutting lines

Healthy ageing

We promote longer, healthier lives through food and precision nutrition.

We combine science, technology and consumer insight to develop solutions tailored to each life stage.

Research sublines

Childhood and adolescence

We address obesity prevention and the promotion of healthy habits through clinical trials, behavioural research and co-creation with families and schools, ensuring solutions are effective, accepted and sustainable over time.

Adulthood and working life

We develop personalised nutrition recommendations using algorithms that integrate clinical and lifestyle data. We create digital self-management tools and collaborate with collective catering services to deliver healthier menus without compromising taste.

Early Elderly (55–75 years)

We focus on maintaining immune function and muscle mass through foods adapted to the sensory and metabolic changes of ageing. We also develop biomarkers and biosensors for more precise monitoring of nutritional status.
