Conferences papers are an excellent source of current research.
Search Scopus and Web of Science by specifying conference proceedings or conference paper as the document type.
Full-text conference papers may be hard to obtain. If a paper is not available online, you could contact the author and request a copy. Also, the Library may be able to borrow or purchase published proceedings--ask the Food Science Subject Librarian for assistance.
