Mahtab Shoukat's project focuses on cheese microbial ecosystem structuration and resilience. The objective is to understand the effect of iron on the cheese ecosystem. Dynamic data will be collected during the ripening process of a model cheese produced with/without iron supplementation. Several macro-scale data will be collected: microorganisms' growth, substrates degradation, pH, color, rheology, moisture, organoleptic properties, and online measure of respiration.
In this meeting, Mahtab Shoukat (ESR10) presented his project background, aims & objectives, experimental methodologies, and expected results through a detailed presentation. This meeting lasted for 3 hours in order to evaluate the candidate's capabilities and project understanding to make recommendations about thesis progress. Additionally, this committee also discussed possible training and skills to improve ESR10 competence.
"My 1st thesis committee meeting was highly productive and helpful to discuss my proposed research methodologies. The presence of dairy experts, biochemists, and microbial ecologists in the committee provided me this opportunity to debate various technical aspects of my project." Mahtab Shoukat - ESR10
