Research Interests：
1. Food Chemical Quality and Safety
2. Food Lipids and Edible Oils
3. Aromas and Edible Essential Oils

 

Prof. Shimin Wu obtained his doctorate (Dr. rer. nat.) in food chemistry in 2005 under the guidance of Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Dr. Ing.-habil. Ralf G. Berger, at the Institut für Lebensmittelchemie, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. Dr. Wu received many awards including DAAD scholarship (2003-2005) by the German Academic Exchange Service, SMC Excellent Young Scholarship (2008) by SJTU, Certificate of Appreciation (2014) by Leibniz Universität Hannover, ACS Membership Award (2015-2018) by the American Chemical Society, and National Excellent Scientific Member in Cereals & Oils (2018) by Chinese Cereals and Oils Association.

 

Prof. Wu is the commissioner of the National Technical Committee on Oilseeds and Oils of Standardization Administration of China, and the standing director member in the Subcommittee on Fermented Flour Products of Chinese Cereals and Oils Association. He is also the member of Expert committee for Food Safety Standardization, the member of Expert Committee for Food Safety Risk Assessment Administration, and the expert of Science Popularization for Food Safety in Shanghai.

 

Research interests in Prof. Wu’s group are food quality and safety based on modern food chemistry, foodomics, and food technologies, as well as multidisciplinary methods at molecular level, covering the spectrum from fundamental to applied research. His research firstly focuses on food lipids and aromas, especially on the stabilization, characterization, quality and function of lipids, edible oils, fried foods, spices and natural volatile flavors. The second major concern is undesirable chemical compounds, such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), oxidized harmful molecules, pesticides and heavy metals in oils, oilseeds, fatty foods and edible aromatic plants and seeds, including their origin, determination, formation, migration, change, dietary exposure, risk assessment, green reduction/removal, inhibition and control.  As the first or corresponding author, Dr. Wu has published 82 peer-reviewed papers, 5 books/book chapters, and 15 patents.

 

Prof. Wu's lab warmly welcomes excellent graduates to join the team. We will help the students to obtain various international doctoral scholarships. Postdoctoral or young scholar programs are open at any time for the applicants who obtained PhD degree no more than ten years.
