Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Dunne is an experienced food scientist and academic with over a decade of multidisciplinary research and teaching in meat science, food chemistry and nutrition. He combines university-level lecturing and module coordination with industry-facing research and consultancy on beef quality, animal production systems and functional food ingredients. Skilled in chromatography (HPLC, GC), wet chemistry and statistical analysis, he has led and coordinated field trials and collaborative projects that bridge lab findings with on-farm practice. Equally comfortable as an independent consultant or team-based researcher, he has a track record of translating scientific inquiry into practical solutions for producers, processors and policymakers. Beyond the lab, he’s engaged in public discourse on agriculture and rural affairs, co-founding a regenerative farming community and presenting on sectoral panels. His background—PhD in meat science plus hands-on agricultural and fisheries experience—gives him a rare ability to connect molecular-level analyses with real-world food production challenges.
