College Connections is a monthly webinar series moderated by Bob Roberts to give you a unique, inside perspective of the programs, people, and partnerships of the Penn State College of Ag Sciences. 

Food Sensory analysis uses human senses to measure food characteristics such as tast, texture, smell, and appearance, which helps the food industry understand consumer demands and develop new and improved products. 

On our October 18 College Connections, Bob Roberts will be joined by John Hayes, professor of Food Science and director of the Sensory Evaluation Center, and Helene Hopfer, associate professor of Food Science and Rasmussen Career Development professor, to discuss our state-of-the-art Sensory Evaluation Center and how you can participate in our research taste tests!
