The CrossPaths consortium is pleased to highlight the upcoming international scientific conference that will bring together leading researchers, healthcare professionals, innovators and policy stakeholders to discuss the future of nutrition and health research.

From 2 to 4 September 2026, the city of Olsztyn, Poland, will host the international conference dedicated to the latest advances in nutrition science, personalised nutrition, healthy ageing and precision health approaches. Organised within the framework of the Welcome2ERA Chair initiative and at the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, the event aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue and strengthen international collaboration across Europe and beyond.

The conference will provide a unique opportunity for participants to explore how nutrition influences health throughout the lifespan, from early-life interventions to healthy ageing strategies. Scientific sessions will address emerging topics including nutrigenomics, personalised nutrition, metabolic health, prevention of chronic diseases and innovative approaches to translating research findings into practical healthcare solutions.

Bringing together experts from academia, research organisations, healthcare institutions and industry, the event will serve as a platform for exchanging knowledge, presenting cutting-edge research and developing new collaborative opportunities. Participants will have the chance to engage with internationally recognised speakers, discover recent scientific advances and discuss future directions for research and innovation in the field.

For the CrossPaths community, the conference represents an excellent opportunity to connect with researchers working at the intersection of health, nutrition, biotechnology and societal challenges. Such interdisciplinary exchanges are essential for strengthening research ecosystems and supporting the development of impactful Horizon Europe projects.

Beyond the scientific programme, the conference will offer numerous networking opportunities designed to encourage new partnerships and collaborative initiatives. These interactions are particularly valuable for researchers and organisations seeking to participate in future European research and innovation actions.

CrossPaths encourages all interested partners and stakeholders to explore the conference programme and consider participating in this important international gathering.

More information, including registration details and the latest programme updates, is available on the conference website.
