Director-General Professor Steven Walker commented: "These new projects demonstrate the wide variety of research that we undertake at Campden BRI, which in turn is an indication of the breadth and depth of our expertise. Our current programme covers about 50 projects. In addition to our member-funded research, we also undertake work for UK government departments, the EU and other bodies."
