PhD scholarship in food allergy and threshold of sensitisation

Kongens Lyngby

Do you want to contribute to the development of new tools for the prediction of allergenicity of novel foods and alternative food proteins and enable the production of new and safe food for the future?

In this PhD project you will contribute to developing a toolbox with methods allowing for prediction of allergenicity of new foods and test the specific hypothesis that there exists a threshold for food protein exposure below which there is only a minimal risk for being sensitised to proteins in novel food. You will be involved in research, innovation, publication, and scientific dissemination, where your primary research tasks will focus on:

  • Collecting and analysing data from the literature
  • Collecting and analysing data from food consumption databases
  • Performing mass spectrometry analysis
