Dear Colleagues,
I am currently exploring opportunities to collaborate on Horizon Europe’s initiative focused on "New foods - Promoting innovation in food design, processing, and supply through reorienting demand and supply" under the broader scope of sustainable and resilient food systems.
My project idea centers around innovative nanofiber coatings or reducing fat content in foods using nanomaterials. The goal of this project is to extend shelf life, improve food quality, and reduce waste while also developing healthier, lower-fat food products. The study aims to provide advanced solutions for food processing and storage aligned with the objectives of sustainability and innovation in food systems.
I am seeking partners with expertise in the following areas:
• Advanced food processing technologies
• Material science and nanotechnology for food applications
• Supply chain management and sustainability in food systems
• Healthy food design and functional food development
• Policy and consumer behavior related to sustainable food choices
If you are working on similar topics or have complementary expertise, I would love to explore potential synergies and collaboration opportunities. Together, we can contribute to the development of sustainable and healthy food systems through innovative solutions.
Please feel free to reach out to me for further discussion or to exchange ideas.
Best regards
