Parking - Parking lot 40
(right behind Babcock) is free after 4:30pm. If lot 40 is full, another
option is parking lot 39 (next to the dairy plant) which is available
for free parking after 4:30pm. To easily find these parking lots,
you can utilize the Wiscmap that will show you the details
about the lots. The link is http://map.wisc.edu/.
Then in the upper right hand corner you can do searches for buildings
or parking lots. So if you search "Babcock Hall",
"Parking lot 39", or "Parking lot 40", it will show
you where it is on the map.
RSVP to Beth Ann
Nylander at bnylander@kraftfoods.com. Let her know
if you will be paying by credit card in advance or by cash or check at
the door.

Research Interests:
Primary area of research encompasses food engineering with
a particular emphasis on phase transitions in foods. Crystallization
and glass transitions play an important role in determining textural
and physical properties of many food products. Understanding these
phase transitions is critical to proper design, development and control
of many food processes. In particular, our research group studies
crystallization of ice (freeze concentration, recrystallization in
frozen desserts), sugars (refining, confectionery applications) and
lipids (milk fat fractionation, mixed lipid crystallization in
chocolates and confections) as well as glass transition events of
importance to stability and shelf life of foods. This work involves
fundamental understanding of the physical chemistry of these phase
transitions, kinetics and applications of this understanding to real
products. In general, we apply these principles to food products like
ice cream, confections, chocolate and compound coatings, and dairy
products.
