Research projects are concerned with issues in fish production and nutrition, human nutrition and aging, fruits and berries, vegetables, textiles, dairy products, leather, and more. Safety, production, quality, nutritional value, and economic value are some of the impacts of our research.

Many of our accomplishments have been behind the scenes in the area of food safety research.
