IFTSA thesis video challenge

The IFTSA (Institute of Food Technologists Student Association) thesis video challenge encourages students to hone and creatively develop their scientific communication skills. Students were asked to produce a fun, creative three-minute video related to original research carried out during their post-graduate studies.

Zachary Cartwright won the 2017 competition for his video about his research into Brettanomyces bruxellensis (a yeast) contamination of oak barrels and grape vines. We are delighted to sponsor the competition again this year to help attract young talent and raise awareness of the food industry as a career option. We will host Zachary for a 10 day visit to the UK to learn more about the European food and drink industry; including spending some time at our headquarters in Gloucestershire and with our Wine team at our Nutfield site.
