My passion in work is to increase the sustainability of food chains. I work as researcher and project leader in the group Food Technology at Wageningen Food & Biobased Research. Building a team and working jointly towards a common goal is essential to increase sustainability. In my projects I focus on resource use efficiency and work on new processing technologies for food industry, product-based process control with new sensor solutions, data analyses and integration into decision support, alternative sources for ingredients and sustainability assessment. These themes are closely related to reduction of food loss and waste, essential for lowering the climate impact of the food chain.
