Following the first-ever European Parliament debate dedicated to safe gluten-free catering, AOECS has published a new report outlining practical next steps to improve safety, inclusion and mobility for people living with coeliac disease across Europe. The report identifies three priority areas for future action and calls for stronger collaboration across the hospitality sector and policymakers.
AOECS has launched the Young Researcher Award in Coeliac Disease Research to recognise and encourage outstanding early-career scientists. The international award aims to raise the profile of promising researchers, foster collaboration and inspire the next generation of experts working to improve the lives of people with coeliac disease. Open for applications now until 15 August 2026.
Some of the proteins most strongly linked to coeliac disease were removed from the wheat — and the bread actually became better. That was one of the remarkable findings presented in the AOECS Scientific Book 2025, where researchers explored how wheat could potentially become less harmful for people with coeliac disease while still producing high-quality bread.

Your research and projects could help shape the future of coeliac care. AOECS invites submissions for its 5th Call for Scientific Papers, with selected work presented at the 2026 Annual Conference and published in the Scientific Book. Deadline: 30 June 2026.
🍺 Call for Scientific Papers on Gluten-Free Beer! 🍺 AOECS is inviting the research community to explore gluten detection in hydrolysed products like beer, focusing on analytical methods, accurate calibrants, and clinical studies to assess gluten safety for coeliac patients. Submit your findings by 28 April 2025 📅 Learn more and submit on https://www.aoecs.org/coeliac-disease/call-for-papers/
