Offer Description

The research programme aims to develop and apply advanced metabolomics approaches for the characterization of grape biodiversity and the quality of wine production. Using high-resolution mass spectrometry together with targeted and untargeted metabolomics, the chemical profiles of grape samples from different cultivars and agronomic conditions will be characterized. The resulting datasets will be integrated using bioinformatics tools, multivariate analysis, and machine learning approaches to identify biomarkers associated with quality, resilience, and sustainability. The project will also contribute to the development of predictive models and data integration platforms supporting the valorization of agri-food resources and the transfer of innovation.
