Leeds University Business School/Food Standards Agency PhD Studentship
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) commissioned an innovative study that involved installing motion sensitive cameras in food businesses and domestic kitchens to record and analyse behaviour around food hygiene and safety practices. Read more
Development of a food allergen bionanosensor - a citizen science approach
The overall aim of the project is the design, construction and implementation of a multi-channel microfluidic bionanosensor for the multiplex analysis of food allergens. Read more
Controlling selective formation of free radicals in cold atmospheric-pressure plasmas
Research Group:
York Plasma Institute
Non-equilibrium plasma technology underpins many high-tech industries such as nanofabrication of computer chips, deposition of advanced functional coatings and production of solar cells. Read more
Understanding plant stress and senescence to reduce food waste and improve food security
*This is project is to be conducted as an MPhil*. Abiotic stress during crop growth results in extensive crop losses and is thus important for food security. Read more
Innovative methods of identifying toxigenic fungi in Irish cereal grain, to protect human and animal food chains
Project aims. The overarching aim is to develop new tools for improved monitoring and prediction of toxigenic fungal and mycotoxin contamination of cereals produced on the Island of Ireland. Read more
Towards a zero-emission food supply chain
Description. Globally, the food system accounted for about 30% of total energy consumption and 20% of GHG emissions in 2011 (FAO, 2016). Read more
Towards a net-zero supply chain for the Food Industry
Globally, the food system accounted for about 30% of total energy consumption and 20% of GHG emissions in 2011 (FAO, 2016). The supply chain, especially cold chain (temperature-controlled supply chain, including fridge, freezer, refrigerated truck/van cold box etc.) is a key player in ensuring food quality and safety.

Exploring The Utility of Transcriptomics Data in Toxicology
One of the challenges for the future of agriculture is to sustainable increase food production, using only the same or ideally less land area, to provide the quality and quantity required to meet the needs of an increasingly affluent & growing human population and simultaneously mitigating climate change and protecting or regenerating biodiversity.

The development of highly practical chemical sensors is important for the detection of toxic compounds in our food and water supply. Read more
Last chance to apply
(EPSRC DTP) Investigating the fate and effects of biodegradable and non-biodegradable plastics in models of the gastrointestinal system
Due to unique properties and low cost production, plastic is one of the most common material in our every day life. However, as plastic use rises, so does plastic waste and plastic pollution. Read more
