The CSIRO’s Division of Food Science and Technology and
the Australian Food Industry Science Centre (AFISC) in Victoria are merging to
form what they claim will be the biggest food research centre in the Southern
Hemisphere with about 300 scientific and technical staff. The new centre is still

established it will involve joint research between the AFISC laboratories in
Werribee near Melbourne and CSIRO laboratories in Sydney, Melbourne and
Brisbane.
