Perfil Pessoal

Descrição pessoal

Normando, a dedicated scientist, leads the research group "Food, Fermentation, Yeast, and Flavours". With expertise in yeast, fermentation, distillation, and flavour formation, he has been a prominent figure in studying the sugarcane spirit (cachaça)/bioethanol process since 2003. Normando's academic journey includes developing a sorghum spirit during his undergraduate studies and utilising sorption isotherms and drying modelling in his master's degree to enhance raw materials control and food waste re-utilisation through yeast fermentation. His doctoral specialisation focused on fermentation and yeast-flavour formation, resulting in significant contributions to these fields. As a coordinator, Normando oversees ten research initiatives connected with twelve Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP), fostering collaboration with 38 cachaça productions. He has a global network, collaborating with universities worldwide, including universities in North America, South America, Central America, Europe and Asia. Normando's adaptability to diverse cultures and his openness to collaboration underscore his philosophy that motivation brings opportunities, and opportunities bring motivation (Normando Filho).
