Research Goals

Dr. Van Buiten's research takes a multitiered, interdisciplinary approach to food science and nutrition, starting with a foundation of of identifying and understanding bioactives from plant-based foods, and their potential protective roles in the amelioration of chronic GI diseases. As bioactive profiles of plant-based food are modified by processing, the Van Buiten lab will also be investigating the use of processing to optimize specific bioactives in plant foods, with the ultimate outcome goal of application- targeted product development and more nuanced dietary recommendations. As a part of Colorado State University's Land Grant Mission, the Van Buiten Lab aims to produce research that will serve the general public by meeting the challenges of today and tomorrow for food production and human health.
