Food History Seminar

Launched at the IHR in summer 2017, the Food History Seminar provides an inclusive setting in which food historians, academics and experts working in related fields can come together to discuss their research.

We wish to encourage the participation of all researchers in the seminar, including established academics, independent scholars, museum professionals and postgraduates.
