Comparative characterisation of structure and digestibility of plant-based proteins and dietary fibres in relation to processing.

Description:
We are looking for a PhD student who is willing to conduct research on how structural characteristics of foods and biomaterials altered and affect their properties including nutritional composition, bioavailability and bioaccessibility. The candidate needs to have a genuine interest in interdisciplinary research bridging between physico-chemical properties of protein and fibres to their impacts in foods on nutrition and health. The candidate is also willing to work in collaboration with the PAN-industrial partners.

The main aim is to characterise various Nordic crops proteins in combination with dietary fibres and other food ingredients in terms of structure, bioaccesibility, digestion, fermentation and storage condition and in relation to various processing conditions. This will enable prediction of health benefits as well as sensory properties as taste and texture attributes.

The main objectives of the PhD project are:

• To systematically characterise the impact of processing techniques affect the (micro) structure as well as viscosity/texture of the model products.

• To establish the relationship between these characteristics and characteristics of the meal matrix with the in vitro digestibility of the proteins with or without the combination of dietary fibres and other food ingredients relate to bioavailability of micronutrients.

Specifically, this position is suitable for the early-stage researcher with a drive to carry out research in the field of material, food and nutrition and medical sciences, with an emphasis on the development of responsive materials based on protein and polysaccharides and their use in digestion and fermentation of food.

Qualifications:
The successful applicant for the position as PhD student should hold a Master of science in chemistry, physics, materials science, food technology, food science, biotechnology or similar. Knowledge on the structural properties of foods and techniques to study such is central for employment. Experience in microscopy (light, confocal, electron) and rheology is meritorious. Personal qualities such as sense of responsibility and ability to independently perform duties as part of a research team will be valued. Mandatory experiences and skills include experimental laboratory work, scientific writing skills and ability to work in interdisciplinary projects. It is meritorious to experience of the food industry. Excellent communication skills in both oral and written scientific English are required.
