Join our Publications Committee Advisory Panel

This is a volunteer role.

IFST’s work is overseen by various committees and panels. We’re a finite community of professionals and we’re keen to ensure our committees and panels have good representation from across the sector to take that work forward. Playing your part shouldn't take up a lot of time, typically one meeting a year. So if you’re interested in getting involved, do put yourself forward for the role below.

Would you like to influence the topics and direction of Food Science and Technology Magazine? If so, apply to join our Publications Committee Advisory Panel today. We are looking for new panel members, particularly mid-career professionals, who have an interest in publications, specifically Food Science & Technology (FS&T) magazine. Ideally, you must be available to attend one review meeting per year where we review the progress of FS&T. We will also request and welcome feedback to the Editor at any time during the year. If you’d like to apply or have any questions, please get in touch.
