02 Jul 2020 --- The UK government’s £300 million (US$375 million) investment to upgrade scientific infrastructure as part of its new R&D Roadmap has drawn criticism for not explicitly mentioning whether nutritional research is within its scope. This plan sets out a vision to attract global talent, cut “unnecessary bureaucracy” and cement the UK industry’s scientific capacities, according to the government. NutritionInsight speaks with UK-based companies active in the nutrition space, who weigh in on the new proposal, while flagging the need for further details about how their businesses may be affected.
