She is a researcher at the Institute of Food Engineering 鈥揊oodUPV in the i-Food group. Her research has focused on the development of products based on fruits and vegetables with high sensory, nutritional, and functional quality. On the one hand, designing and improving the processes for obtaining different food products derived from fruit and vegetables. On the other hand, identifying and studying the stability and bioavailability of micronutrients and phytochemicals associated with fruit and vegetables and the products obtained. Recently, one of her main lines of research has been extrusion and 3D printing, incorporating ingredients with a high content of bioactive compounds into mixtures, and obtaining snacks with a high nutritional and functional content. It also works on the valorization of agri-food waste and by-products as ingredients or to obtain natural bioactive compounds. She has carried out research stays at Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain), Instituto Polit茅cnico de Bragan莽a (Portugal), Cluj-Napoca University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine (Romania), Technical University of Ambato (Ecuador), and Centre for Agri-Food Research and Technology of Aragon (Spain).
