Upcoming: Nebraska Lecture (Nov 12th), FPC Open House (Nov 20th), and final FST Seminar of the fall semester (Dec 4th)
Colleagues - This week, we are not going to have a departmental seminar. Instead, I encourage everyone to watch the Nebraska Lecture: the Chancellor's Distinguished Speaker Series<https://research.unl.edu/nebraskalectures/ >.
* Presentation: The Little Particle That Could: Milk Exosomes * Presenter: Dr. Janos Zempleni, Cather Professor of Nutrition and Health Sciences * When: Wednesday, November 12, 2025 at 3:30 pm * Where: Swanson Auditorium, Nebraska Union. The presentation will also be live-streamed<https://research.unl.edu/nebraskalectures/ > and a recording posted on the same website.
I am particularly excited about this topic since the FPC helped Dr. Zempleni and his student collect preliminary data demonstrating milk exosomes are stable after HPP treatment. The FPC looks forward to continue working with his group on future HPP explorations.
Speaking of The Food Processing Center...
The FPC will be hosting an Open House on Thursday, Nov 20th from 11:30 am - 1:00 pm, in lieu of a formal department seminar. All FST faculty, staff and students are invited to visit FPC service labs to learn more about our equipment rentals and testing services. See attached flyer.

All - Don't forget...
Dr. Almenar, an IFT Fellow, will be giving a seminar on "Sustainable Food Packaging" tomorrow at noon in FIC 277. Since we don't have a packaging course or program here at UNL, this is a great opportunity to learn more about this topic.
This is our last "official" FDST 951 seminar of the semester. But stay tuned...something's brewing for Thu, Dec 11, at noon...
Hope to see you there, Grace Danao
