Philosophy
Book chapter on metaphors in food technology | July 2021
Wide-ranging article, drawing from many disciplines, exploring the role of metaphor in discourse around food science and technology
Currently I have several works in the following general areas that I am seeking to publish:
- Formal methods in food technology
- Ontological discourse in food and nutrition
Science
My scientific work to date has mainly focused on the following topics:
- Food structure and function: the impact of micro- and macro-scale properties on the techno-functional behaviour of food and ingredients (e.g., dissolution, flow)
- Food design and formulation: the rational design of multi-component food systems for use in specific applications (e.g., sports nutrition, meal-replacement)
- Food processing and fractionation: the development of novel processing strategies to create new ingredients and products (e.g., 3D-printed food, bio-functional proteins)
The most up-to-date lists of my publications can be found on Google Scholar or ResearchGate
I am committed in my scholarly and creative work to connecting ideas, approaches and techniques across domains. If you are interested in collaborating please reach out to edibotopic@gmail.com.
