Congratulations Nandika Bandara, Ph.D., CFS
Associate Professor & Canada Research Chair in Food Proteins and Bioproducts at the University of Manitoba, Editor at Food Chemistry Journal
I was honored to receive the International Society for Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods (ISNFF) Young Scientist Research Award at the 16th ISNFF Annual Meeting and Expo held in combination with the 2024 International Journal Forum on Interdisciplinary Food Science (FIFS & ISNFF 2024), December 3-6, 2024, Wuxi, China. Though I could not attend the ISNFF Annual meeting this year due to a visa issue, my former PhD supervisor, Dr. Jianping Wu, accepted the award on my behalf. At the same award ceremony, my former PhD supervisor, Dr. Jianping Wu, was inducted as an ISNFF Fellow, while my colleague and mentor, Dr. Rotimi Aluko, was awarded the ISNFF Merit Award. It would have been great if I could have attended personally to receive the award with them, but I am glad to receive this honor, and special thanks to Dr. Jianping Wu for accepting the award on my behalf. This recognition perfectly reflects the training I received during my graduate studies and all the hard work my trainees at the Food Proteins and Bioproducts Lab have done to advance my research program. Without your support, this award would not have been possible. Also, a special thank you to Dr. Fereidoon Shahidi, who encouraged me to engage with ISNFF and was a great mentor for my academic career. Congratulations to Dr.Jianping Wu and Dr.Rotimi Aluko for their respective awards at the ISNFF award ceremony.
