Tristan Muller is a PhD candidate in the Department of Food Sciences at Université Laval, Quebec, Canada, under the supervision of Dr. Laurent Bazinet. He is affiliated with the Institute of Nutrition and Functional Foods (INAF) and the Laboratory of Food Processing and Electro Membrane Processes. His research is driven by a keen interest in the causes and consequences of climate change, particularly focusing on the impacts of food systems.
Tristan has recognized that promoting plant-based proteins is a crucial strategy for mitigating climate change. Designing nutritious products based on these proteins has become his primary objective. After completing his master's degree at AgroParisTech in France, he relocated to Quebec City, Canada, to pursue his goal of studying leaf proteins for human consumption. He is committed to advancing his research with the aim of contributing to the broader acceptance and utilization of these unconventional yet highly valuable protein sources.
