Ghent University offers a unique proposal: the collaboration between veterinarians, physicians and scientists from different disciplines present at Ghent University takes the research to a higher level and creates many opportunities for innovation. At our Faculty of Veterinary Medicine these innovations can be tested in our own facilities and on the target species.

I initiated the Particle & Interfacial Technology research group at Ghent University. Our main focus is related to the preparation, characterization (with special focus on particle size analysis), stabilization and application of dispersed systems, such as (nano)emulsions, liposomal dispersions or (nano)suspensions, also considering interfacial phenomena. Current research topics include the prevention of heat coagulation in concentrated dairy emulsions, processing effects on (plant-based) protein functionality, as well as the formulation of double emulsions.
