We are talking about nutritional sciences and about what underpins our health and well-being. Yet we are also at a particularly significant point, because for the first time at the Warsaw University of Life Sciences, health will no longer be treated merely as a background consideration motivating or contextualising our activities. Instead, health and health sciences will become a clearly defined and central component of our work in the years <\/em>ahead.<\/em> – <\/span><\/span>Professor <\/span>Micha\u0142 <\/span>Zasada, <\/span>Rector <\/span>of <\/span>SGGW<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>

The Center being opened today is also intended to help solve real societal problems, promote health, improve nutritional quality, and respond to the challenges facing our <\/em>society<\/em>. –<\/span><\/span>\u00a0said <\/span>Dr <\/span>Marcin <\/span>Kulasek.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>
