Research Interests
Food engineering. The overall goal is to develop improved methods for design and operation of manufacturing systems for ready-to-eat food products, with a primary emphasis on improved microbial safety. Current research focuses on modeling microbial inactivation, transport, survival, and growth for critical foodborne pathogens and products (e.g., Salmonella in low-moisture foods, E. coli O157:H7 on fresh produce, Salmonella in meat and poultry products).
