Welcome to the Zhou’s Research Group


This research group is how to use advanced food science and technologies to enhance the food nutrition, safety, and quality, and to create the next-generation foods for our community. We am expecting that our lab can make significant contributions to this field.

Open positions

This group is constantly looking for incoming graduate students (M.S./Ph.D) who will study at Department of Food Science & Technolgy, University of Georgia. The students will expect to receive research assistantship and obtain professional research training and experience in next-generation foods and nutrition. General background and interest in food science or related (e.g., Chemistry, Biology, and Physics) is necessary. Please directly contact Hualu Zhou via (zhouhualu@gmail.com or hualuzhou@hotmail.com) for details.
