I have my educational and professional background in plant biology and food biotechnology, especially in the fields of berry research and agricultural byproduct utilization. Currently, I work with metabolomics analyses in LongITools project to study the effects of dietary exposures on human metabolism. My main research interests include the application of integrative omics approaches and in vitro digestion models in surveying the interactions between plant food matrices and human nutrition physiology, and the food technological means to improve the nutritional quality of sustainable protein sources.
