After attending Scottish Crucible, I was awarded a Royal Academy of Engineering Industrial Fellowship to work with Molson Coors on a project that aims to rigorously optimise high-quality beer production.  This will be achieved via state-of-the-art computational algorithms and industrial data, leading to energy- and resource-efficient process intensification.

Molson Coors will acquire unprecedented brewing insight, via flavour quantification and systematic model parameter estimation.  The collaboration will serve high-fidelity modelling and comparative evaluation of optimisation methodologies, and strengthen university links with the UK beverage industry.  Master’s level and PhD projects will be developed and undergraduate teaching will be invigorated by new computational and experimental industrial case studies.
