Agronomic and environmental assessment of bio-based fertilisers recovered from the processing of food and animal wastes. Ghent University
Novel bio-based fertilisers recovered from the processing of food and animal wastes have the potential to supplement or replace conventional mineral fertilisers. This PhD focuses on the comprehensive evaluation of such recovered fertilisers to determine their physicochemical composition, agronomic efficiency, and environmental performance in terms of carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions.

Innovative strategies to improve parental food choices and thus create a healthier home food environment for children. Ghent University
This innovative project will identify critical individual and environmental determinants of parental
food choices by focus groups, test innovative ways ((i.e., mHealth, supermarket nudges and
healthy meal boxes) to influence them and identify facilitators and barriers by process evaluation. We target both lower and higher SES households (SES as moderator).
