The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) launched a call to renew the membership of its Scientific Panels on food additives and nutrient sources added to food (ANS) and on food contact materials, enzymes, flavourings and processing aids (CEF), and also to expand the reserve list of its Scientific Committee and its 8 other Scientific Panels. Scientists are invited to respond to the call, which opens on 10 June 2010 and closes on 15 September 2010. Selected applicants will be offered a renewable three-year mandate and will join Europe’s network of leading food safety scientists from the summer 2011.

Supported by EFSA’s Risk Assessment Directorate and Scientific Committee & Advisory Forum Unit, the Scientific Committee and Panels are responsible for providing independent scientific advice on all matters related to food and feed safety, nutrition, animal health and welfare as well as plant health protection.
