Örebro University and the School of Hospitality, Culinary Arts and Meal Science are looking for a doctoral student for the doctoral programme in Culinary Arts and Meal Science, ending with a doctoral degree. Start date: spring 2021.

Project description
Plant-based Proteins for Health and Wellbeing (PAN Sweden) is a recently established interdisciplinary research centre clarifying the relationship between processing, structure, bioavailability, digestion and fermentation of proteins and health effects in terms of gut, metabolic and mental health, with the consumer in focus. Coordinated by Örebro University, PAN Sweden is a collaboration of Örebro University, Chalmers University of Technology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala University, and RISE Sweden, together with Swedish industrial and public health partner organisations. Our vision is that food produced in environmentally sustainable ways and with health benefits will become consumers' preferred choice. PAN Sweden wants to expand its scientific staff with early-stage researchers with a genuine interest in interdisciplinary research.

The main purpose of the project for the offered position will be to identify determinants and drivers of consumption of food containing plant-based proteins, both from individual and social perspectives. Part of the experimental work will be done within gastronomic test environments.

The position will be located at the School of Hospitality, Culinary Arts and Meals Science at Örebro University. Örebro University is a modern, broad-based, and growing university, currently, 1 500 employees and 17 000 students come to work and study at the university. The School of Hospitality, Culinary Arts and Meals Science provides education for the Hospitality Industry as well as for the public meal sector and the food industry. The school offers three study programs at bachelor level: Chef and Culinary Arts and Meal Science, Sommelier and Culinary Arts and Meal Science, and Meal Ecologists. The research is organized into three areas: Hospitality, Culinary Arts, and Sensory Science. The position will be connected to the sensory laboratory (SENSE LAB), established as a platform for research and collaboration within the area of sensory science in a context of Gastronomy.
