Food science, aquaculture innovation featured in Food Technology magazine
The October issue of Food Technology Magazine, published by the Institute of Food Technologists, includes a story, “Increasing the ‘Maine’ Sources of U.S. Aquaculture,” about University of Maine aquaculture initiatives focused on bringing nutritious foods to consumers. Highlighted in the article are the integrated research efforts led by Susan Brawley, Denise Skonberg, Balu Nayak, Angela Myracle, Mary Ellen Camire and Steve Eddy. “Our focus is to try and develop technologies and/or products — or at least do the science that leads to technologies and products — that can either bring more economic benefits to the state through its seafood and aquaculture industries,” says Skonberg, an associate professor in the School of Food and Agriculture.
