How can CICN help you with your nutrition-related projects?
Thanks to clinical studies ...
The Center of Investigation in Clinical Nutrition (CICN) conducts clinical studies to investigate the effects of behaviors, dietary supplements, new food products and/or any particular type of diet on health, biological parameters or subjects' perception/responsiveness.
The CICN is a center of expertise for scientifically validated studies in human subjects.
To this end, we manage all stages of a clinical study according to your needs, from drafting the protocol and analyzing the data, to recruiting and monitoring participants.
We can then assess the effects of natural supplements, specific foods or new food products on different aspects of health, such as sleep, stress levels, intestinal transit, mood, hyperlipidemia and inflammation, for example.
Whether you're interested in physiological, behavioral, metabolic or other factors, the CICN can carry out a wide range of analyses, on general populations or more specific target audiences (students, the elderly, overweight people, etc.).
... but also sensory analysis tests, consumer tests and market research ...
In addition to managing clinical studies, our infrastructure also enables us to carry out sensory analysis and market research under semi-controlled conditions, with a view to developing and validating new food products, such as those enriched with plant and alternative proteins.
... and food behavior assessments
Would you like to include food behavior measurement and control in your projects? We can also provide you with our expertise and guide you towards today's best practices.
