DOF 2025 - 11th International Symposium on 'Delivery of Functionality in Complex Food Systems'

The 11th International Symposium on the Delivery of Functionality in Complex Food Systems (DOF 2025) will take place in Santiago, Chile, from November 5 to 7, 2025. This symposium is a premier interdisciplinary platform for presenting cutting-edge research in food science and engineering, biophysics, applied soft matter, food technology, and human nutrition. As one of the leading international conferences in this domain, DOF has consistently fostered dynamic exchanges among experts in academia, industry, and start-ups.

For the first time in South America, DOF 2025 will provide an exceptional opportunity for global participants to engage in meaningful discussions, share innovative ideas, and explore the latest scientific advancements driving the development of functional and sustainable food systems. The conference will feature world-renowned speakers presenting the forefront of research, technological breakthroughs, and future directions in the field. 

DOF 2025 will focus on the following topics:

• Design of complex colloidal systems for delivery: bigels, aerogels, emulgels, emulsions and foams.
• Modulating functionality of food matrices by emerging/novel technologies.
• Oral Processing, digestion, tribology, and rheology: Interdisciplinary insights into Food Behavior and Functionality.
• Designing novel food structures for delivery of functionality.
• Recent advances in plant-based foods.
