1. Pesquisa de alimentos com fins especiais Purpose: Realizar avalia��o biol�gica e bioqu�mica em ratos utilizando uma alimentos especialmente modificados no seu conte�do de nutrientes, para adequ�-los para ser utilizados em dietas de individuos. 2. Avalia��o tecnol�gica, diet�tica, qu�mica, biol�gica, bioqu�mica e histol�gica de alimentos com fins espec�ficos em humanos e animais Purpose: Formular e avaliar biologicamente alimentos especialmente modificados no seu conte�do de nutrientes e assim elucidar o comportamento e a respostas destes nutrientes no metabolismo. Desta forma estudando a inser��o destes nutritentes em dietas espec�ficas e sua resposta quanto a biodisponibilidade, intera��es nutricionais, avalia��es biol�gicas, bioqu�micas e histol�gicas em indiv�duos saud�veis ou com patologias, favorece a melhoria do estado nutricional.

My overall research interests focuses on studying physicochemical characteristics of food in relation to its end used functional and nutritional properties. I am also interested in leading the development of non-destructive technologies such as near infrared and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for predicting foods functional properties as well as microbial activities. Rapidly classifying cereal/ grain quality characteristics for specific targeted end-use processing properties; during processing or genetic modifications is one example of my future research examples. I am also interested in studying cereals, oilseeds and pulses composition, structure, physicochemical properties, end-use functionality and nutritional value as impacted by pre- and post-harvest processing including genetic modifications
