Welcome to SayFood Joint Research Unit

SayFood -Paris-Saclay Food and Bioproduct Engineering- is a research unit created in 2020 by INRAE and AgroParisTech through the merger of the GENIAL and GMPA joint research units.

SayFood's mission is to acquire new scientific knowledge and propose new approaches in product and process engineering for the bioeconomy and the development of new sustainable food systems. The unit aims to contribute to product-process innovation that incorporates the constraints of upstream production as well as the needs and expectations of consumers and users. To conduct its research, SayFood relies on a range of disciplines, including process engineering, food and material chemistry and physico-chemistry, analytical chemistry, microbiology, industrial biotechnology, and consumer sciences.

SayFood comprises approximately 180 people, including researchers, teacher-researchers, PhD students, post-doctoral researchers and administrative support staff. They are grouped into five multidisciplinary teams, a technological facility and an administrative support service.
