In collaboration with Michael Bustle of GTI (Global Training Initiative) we prepared and conducted an intensive short course for 17 Chinese students from four universities. This course include lectures and labs, as well as tours (Howling Cow Dairy, Videri Chocolate, North Carolina Department of Agriculture Labs, Herbalife, Lonerider Brewery, S&D Coffee). Lecture themes included Food Science, Nutrition, and Toxicology. Lectures were followed by labs to reinforce lecture topics. The course culminated in with a tour of the North Carolina Research Center facilities in Kannapolis, NC.
