− | As a Research Scientist with AAFC, Dr. Lovemore Nkata Malunga’s responsibility falls within the study of grain quality. His focus is the structural–activity relationship of cereal grain and pulse components with their perceived functional or nutritional properties and how processing affects this relationship. He also investigates the effect of genotype, environment, processing, and their interaction on cereal grain quality traits. His research program addresses the needs of all members of the value chain, from producers, breeders, industry and consumers (farm to fork). Currently, he is able to work in a hybrid arrangement where he can work with various teams virtually in his home office to provide advice and design research study. Occasionally, for tasks that would require him to be more hands-on to work with specialized research equipment, he would work in the Morden Research and Development Centre in Morden, Manitoba | + | As a Research Scientist with AAFC, Dr. Lovemore Nkhata Malunga’s responsibility falls within the study of grain quality.
