Summary
This 2019 EFSA editorial collected views from outgoing members of EFSA’s Scientific Panels on what food safety research areas should be prioritised for the 2020-2030 horizon. The editorial informs research agendas including the Horizon Europe Research Programme. For Heavy Metal Index purposes, the editorial is contextual: it identifies regulatory-research priorities that include continuing reassessment of contaminant reference values, improving exposure-assessment methodology, and addressing emerging contaminants. It is cited as background rather than as a primary scientific source, hence evidence tier B.
