Food is more than just what we consume—it's a science driven by research, technology, and innovation. With a focus on food microbiology and advanced processing technologies, my work revolves around optimizing the quality and safety of food products, especially juices, through innovative methods like UV-LED treatment and thermosonication. I aim to bridge the gap between cutting-edge science and practical solutions to combat spoilage and enhance food safety, ensuring both consumer satisfaction and sustainability in the food industry Drawing on my experience as a postdoctoral researcher at Jiangsu University and as a consulting engineer in the agri-food industry, I have specialized in enhancing food quality and managing food safety. Our team worked on the inactivation of spoilage bacteria and the optimization of non-thermal processing methods to improve food quality, a mission that reflects my commitment to excellence in the field of food science. My contributions at Jiangsu University include the publication of several articles on food safety, food biochemistry, and ultrasonication and UV light as emerging technologies. Through close collaboration with my colleagues, we made significant advances in post-harvest research, thereby setting high standards for food safety and quality. My goal is to continue innovating and developing practical solutions to address the current challenges in the agri-food industry.
