I completed my PhD (Food Science) in the School of Environmental and Life Sciences of the University of Newcastle, Australia. The purpose of my research was to develop and formulate bio-fungicides based on natural ingredients as potential alternatives to chemical fungicides. I have more than 18 years of experience in food processing, preservation, packaging, and product development in the largest research institute in Bangladesh. I am interested in the research and development of food technologies and disseminating the results of this research to stakeholders. I teach food science as a guest teacher and also supervise MS and PhD students at different universities in Bangladesh.
