Introduction to Prof. Joe M. Regenstein:
Professor Joe M. Regenstein is a Professor Emeritus in the Food Science Department 
of Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, USA, and had many achievements in the 
fields of fisheries, especially fish collagen/gelatin and in the area of ethnic and 
religious foods. Professor Regenstein has published over 100 SCI papers, 3 books, 
and many chapters in academic monographs. He serves as the first editor-in-chief of 
Food Bioscience (which has just been accepted by SCI) and also currently serves or 
has served on the editorial board and/or as a peer reviewer for another 17 SCI

 Abstract:
The first talk is: “The Total Utilization of Fish Waste”.  This talk will review a 
number of options for dealing with the multiple waste streams generated by the 
modern fish industry where filleting and skinning of fish is the norm. Products for 
both human and animal feeding will be covered.
The second talk is: “What Cornell’s Food Science Department Does to be a 
Top-Notch Department”. The Department of Food Science at Cornell is often ranked 
number 1 among food science departments in the US. I would like to look at how our 
department addresses the teaching, research, and extension (outreach) mission as both 
a government operated university and a part of the Ivy League of private schools.
