Green Protein Processing Technologies from Plants

lt;p> Dr Alan Javier Hernández Álvarez is a biochemical engineer by training, with a PhD in Food Science and Nutrition (2012, National Polytechnic Institute, IPN) - Fat Institute, CSIC, Seville, Spain. He worked as a Lecturer at the Food Biochemistry Faculty, Biochemical Engineering Department at the National Polytechnic Institute, Mexico from 2012-2013. Awarded a postdoctoral fellowship from CONACyT in 2013 to follow his research at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada. After this, he was awarded a Visiting Fellowships in Canadian Government Laboratories Award, NSERC, Canada, 2014-2017. During his time at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, he worked with a wide variety of research projects in the areas of value-added food processing, and food quality, acting in an advisory and research capacity providing expertise on protein quality assessment, protein extraction and characterization, techno-functional properties assessment and bioactivity of proteins/peptides. He has collaborated with different Canadian/UK Industry Companies in a wide variety of industry-based projects such as Nature Zen, InnoVactiv, SEMICAN, THIS, Meatless Farm, among others. Currently a Lecturer in Nutrition and Global Health at the School of Food Science and Nutrition, University of Leeds since 2019. Member of the Global Food and Environment Institute (GFEI), University of Leeds. The aim of his research is to enable healthy sustainable diets through identifying and characterizing functional properties of food components, notably proteins and phytochemicals from a wide variety of indigenous and cultivated food sources such as pulses, cereals, pseudo-cereals, algae, insects, etc. A key area is understanding the role of processing on the biological value and safety of proteins and peptides. The long-range goal of Dr. Hernández-Álvarez's research program is to enhance the health of individuals by identifying and determining the benefits of plant foods bioactive components. His research on legumes, algae, oilseeds, cereals and insects have led to increased understanding of the antioxidant, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, and other physiological properties of these foods. To date he has contributed to over 60 publications, book chapters, and conference abstracts in the research areas of protein extraction, bioactive peptides and food processing.

Martin Mondor, PhD Chemical Engineering. Martin Mondor is a chemical engineer by training. He received his bachelor's degree (cooperative program) from the Université de Sherbrooke in 1995. He received a doctorate from the Université de Sherbrooke in 2000. In June 2004, he completed a three-year post-doctorate at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's St-Hyacinthe Research and Development Centre (SHRDC) in St-Hyacinthe. He has been a research scientist at the SHRDC since February 2005, and specializes in membrane technology applications in the agri-food industry. Dr. Mondor's work aims to strengthen the sector's competitive position by focusing on value-added production and processing. He collaborated with different Canadian Industry Companies such as Ferme du Petit Chenal, InnoVactiv, Lassonde Industries, among others. Dr. Mondor has authored or co-authored more than 200 scientific contributions in the form of book chapters, scientific articles, research reports and presentations for scientific conferences. He is external reviewer for over 20 scientific journals. In 2015, Dr. Mondor received the International Association for Engineering and Food's (IAEF) Distinguished Service Award for his outstanding contribution to the International Conference of Engineering and Food (ICEF) and IAEF activities which included the organization of the ICEF 12 conference held in Quebec City in June 2015. In 2021, Dr. Mondor was part of the team which received the Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Science from the S
