Katrina Campbell Professor, School of Biological Sciences Institute for Global Food Security, Queen's University Belfast, UK. Katrina Campbell is a Professor in Food Security and heads the Biosensors Strand within the Centre for ASsured, SafE and Traceable food (ASSET). Katrina is a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Institute of Biology, Irish Toxicology Society and International Society for the study of harmful algae. Katrina obtained a BSc (Hons) in Biochemistry in 1995 and a MMedSc in Ultrastructural Anatomy and Pathology in 1996 from Queen's University Belfast. Her research focussed on developing innovative biosensor screening methods for the detection of chemical contaminants, toxins and foodborne pathogens in food, animal feeds and the environment. She has extensive experience in bioanalytical method development, validation and evaluation with state-of-the-art technologies, end product formation as kits and technology transfer workshops and events for dissemination.
