PhD student, Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry
Rapid Identification of Foodborne Pathogens using Machine Learning
This study developed a rapid and reliable approach to identify 5 common foodborne bacteria using Raman spectroscopy at the single-cell level, providing a powerful tool for epidemiological surveillance of foodborne pathogens in the agri-food chain.
Lucas Roldos
PhD Candidate, School of Human Nutrition
Optimizing the benefits of fruit and vegetable phytochemicals
Dive into the world of phytochemicals, their complex metabolism, and how probiotics and the gut microbiome may magnify their benefits.
Isabella Chiaravallotti
PhD Candidate, Plant Science
Can Machine Learning Help Us Feed The World?
Dive into the world of phytochemicals, their complex metabolism, and how probiotics and the gut microbiome may magnify their benefits.
