Dr Kevin Kwok Wing-hin, Associate Director of PolyU’s Research Institute for Future Food (RiFood) and Assistant Professor of the Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology, introduced the research and future development of future food on the RTHK radio programme “Climate Watcher”, including the research on producing future food from new ingredients such as insects, as well as new technology that can produce and preserve existing food in a better and greener way.
