Biography:

Frank Monahan holds a B.Sc (Biochemistry) and H.dip.Ed. from University College Dublin and a PhD (Food Science and Technology) from University College Cork. Prior to joining UCD he was a postdoctoral scientist at the University of California, Davis and a visiting scholar at Michigan State University. His research interests are in meat authentication, muscle fatty acids and antioxidants and in dietary factors affecting lipid and myoglobin oxidation in muscle foods. He has over 100 published peer reviewed papers and experience in managing/participating in national funded research projects under the Food Institutional Research Measure, the Teagasc Walsh Fellowship and Science Foundation Ireland programmes and participating in EU projects Food Biopak (Fair PL 98 4046) and EU FP6 TRACE (http://www.trace.eu.org/).

Research Interests
