Phil's research interests include product development, the tracking and controlling of foodborne pathogens, investigating the role of micro-organisms in flavour development, developing technologies and approaches to reduce food waste, and exploring consumer's knowledge and perceptions on a range of food related topics.
Phil has worked with a wide range of companies on projects in the dairy, vegetable, seafood, meat, brewing and wine industries.
Prior to becoming a Professor in Food Science, Phil was the Microbiology Programme Manager at the New Zealand Institute for Crop & Food Research, Nelson from 1992 to 2002.
Phil is Chief Scientist for the New Zealand Food Safety Science Research Centre. He is also the President of The New Zealand Institute of Food Scientists and Technologists and a member of The New Zealand Association of Food Protection (President 2017–18), The New Zealand Microbiological Society (President 2001–03), and the Ministry of Health's Infectious Disease Academy.
Phil leads the Technical Innovation sub-theme of the University of Otago's Food Waste Innovation theme. The Theme measures food waste, develops reduction strategies, applies innovative technology, and works to modify producer and consumer behaviour.
Phil is available for consultation on a number of areas including:
The development of new food products
Ways to enhance the safety, quality or shelf-life of existing products
Microbiological issues in seafood, dairy and vegetable processing industries
Cleaning and sanitising regimes
Strategies to reduce or recover value from outputs which would otherwise be wasted
Enhancing the quality, flavour attributes and shelf-life of foods
Understanding and optimising flavour development (beer, wine, blue cheese, processed meats)
The application of volatile analysis to study of food quality and/or microbial growth
Development and validation of cleaning and sanitising regimes
Consumer behaviour and food choice
Food safety and consumers' perceptions of risk
Development of strategies to reduce or recover value from outputs which would otherwise be wasted
