Job Title:

PhD Opportunity: Digital Twin of Protein Extrusion for Plant-Based Meat Innovation

Job Summary:

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled PhD student to join our research team at Monash University and CSIRO. The successful candidate will work on developing a digital twin of the twin-screw extrusion process for plant-based meat products.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop computational models for concentrated plant protein extrusion
  • Conduct experimental studies at laboratory and pilot-scale for model validation
  • Investigate the influence of ingredient physico-chemical properties, extrusion operating parameters, and screw configurations on the rheological behaviour of food material throughout extrusion
  • Collaborate with researchers from different disciplines, such as food engineering, nutrition science, and social science of sensory experience
Requirements:
  • Background in Mechanical/Chemical/Materials Engineering
  • Familiarity in CAD or computational fluid dynamic modelling
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills for experimental design, data interpretation, and problem-solving
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently and as part of a team
Desirable Skills:
  • Background studies in food science and related disciplines or computer science and related disciplines
  • Foundational knowledge in protein chemistry, extrusion processing, rheological principles, and food characterisation
How to Apply:

Please visit the Monash University website for more information and to apply.
