Dr. Shujun Wang is a Professor at Tianjin University of Science & Technology. He was the recipient of University of Sydney Postdoctoral Research Fellowship, and was a lecturer and then Associate Professor at Tianjin University. His research interests are at the interface between food science and nutrition, and his work has provided new conceptual insights into the structural organization and functionality of starch granules; the mechanism of starch gelatinization and retrogradation; the structural changes of starch; and the interactions between starch, protein and lipids during food processing and their effects on starch functionality and digestibility. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed papers, mostly in leading journals in the field of food science and technology. He received the IFT Tanner Award for the Most Cited Paper of 2015, Best Poster Award at the 61st Australian Cereal Chemistry Conference, and the CIFST Distinguished Young Scientist Award. See less
