 Dr Vilma Xhakollari portait

Specialism

Consumer Science, Food Marketing, Experimental Economics
Postdoctoral researcher working on the UKRI funded project

Areas of interest

My research goal is to study different techniques for improving people鈥檚 diet and understanding their preferences for different categories of food products, all of which have the aim of improving the human condition. I have experience in designing choice- experiments. In addition, in my research, I apply elements of social psychology. Finally, my engagement in other EU founded projects, to mention SMARTCHAIN and PRIZEFISH, and work outside academia, helped me understand that many solutions are possible only if seen from multidisciplinary perspective. 

Postgraduate supervision

I am happy to support undergrads and postgrads students interested in exploring human behaviour with a keen interest on functional food.

Teaching

At the moment I teach “Research Methods For Horticultural Business” at Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences, University of Bologna, Second cycle degree programme (LM) in International Horticultural Science.
