Australian Catholic University researchers have announced a partnership with Nestlé Health Science on a start-up incubator to advance innovation in nutrition.
Professor Leonidas Karagounis, a leading researcher in human nutrition science and metabolism at ACU's Mary MacKillop Institute for Health Research, conceived and established the incubator program, which he will now lead from the university's Melbourne Campus.
Professor Karagounis has more than two decades experience investigating the effect of nutrition and lifestyle across the human lifespan. He said the incubator would be a game changer for the next generation of leaders in health science in Australia.
"This strategic partnership with Nestlé Health Science is a fantastic opportunity that will help drive innovation in nutrition and health research into real-world impact," Professor Karagounis said.
"By bringing together researchers and startup companies on campus, we're creating a space where innovative ideas in food and nutrition can scale up into practical solutions that improve community health and wellbeing through the translation of nutrition research."
We're available 9am–5pm AEDT,
Monday to Friday
