Mulige interessekonflikter

As part of my research work, I have several interactions with people and companies in the Danish animal food sectors, as well as with several public authorities. My current position is partially financed by a grant from the Norma og Frode Jacobsens Fond to the Department of Food and Resource Economics at the University of Copenhagen. Connected to the position and some of my research is an advisory committee including private sector representatives. The committee’s terms are specified in the Terms of Reference specified by the Department of Food and Resource Economics at the University of Copenhagen.

In all these relations I act in my function as a full time permanent employee of the University of Copenhagen and I do not receive any remuneration from any of these external contacts.
