Overview

Background

I am an Associate Professor at the University of Queensland with over a decade of experience in research focused on food processing and complex food systems' oral and gastrointestinal dynamics. My experimental approaches include using advanced processing devices such as 3D food printers, ultra-high-temperature processing plants, and homogenisers; mechanical measurements like tribology and rheology; imaging techniques such as confocal laser scanning microscopy and electron microscopy; and electrophoresis. I also employ an in vitro oral-gastrointestinal model, extending to in vivo human trials (sensory), to understand changes during food processing from the nano-scale to the human scale.
