Dr Mo Li BFoodTech(Hons), PhD

Senior Research Officer in Postharvest Technology

Doctoral Supervisor
School of Agriculture and Environment

I am a research officer working at the Massey AgriTech Partnership, College of Sciences. I completed my PhD in Postharvest Technology at 淘料视频. My research focuses on applying nondestructive optical techniques and advanced machine learning methods to solve industrial problems in the horticulture sector. My PhD focused on predicting kiwifruit storage potential by developing mathematical predictive models based on nondestructive measurements of the same fruit. I am particularly interested in visible-near infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, laser backscattering imaging and optical coherent tomography (OCT). I am also currently investigating the performance of consumer scale sensors for fruit quality prediction.
