Project
Food Authentication Using Portable Sensors: Addressing Food Fraud and Food Mislabelling
About Me
I joined the CDT because I wanted to be a part of an organisation that brings together students with similar interests and goals. I am passionate about making a difference to the world of food safety and in particular those with life threatening food allergies. I am studying my PhD at Queen’s University in Belfast, having moved to Northern Ireland in January 2024. I picked Queens because of their excellent reputation for research. My ultimate career goal is to become a consultant within the world of food safety, helping them to make the most of AI technology. I own a farm as well, so in my spare time I can be found looking after my sheep or riding my horses.
Research Interests
Food safety, machine learning, food authentication, artificial intelligence, food fraud, food contamination.
