About
Dr Mahsa Majzoobi is a Vice-Chancellor's Senior Research Fellow at RMIT School of Science. She has extensive international academic and research experience in plant food products especially in grain chemistry and processing, starch manufacturing, characterization and modification, food waste transformation through upcycling and value-addition, and novel trends in food productions such as functional foods, vitamin-fortified foods, meat-free, low GI, and gluten-free products, has published about 130 research and review papers/book chapters. She has been the lead and CI of several competitive and industry-funded projects.
Mahsa has developed a professional portfolio by working across the food supply chain with NSW Department of Primary Industries, CSU and RMIT Universities and has conducted/led research projects for several food and grain industries. Mahsa' research outputs have helped the food industry solve its technological/operation problems related to food manufacturing, reducing/transforming food waste, new product development, sensory/consumer behaviors and value-addition.
