Professor Rickey Yada is Dean of The University of British Columbia, Canada, and specializes in the structure-function relationships of food and non-food related enzymes using molecular biology and various physico-chemical techniques, carbohydrate metabolism as it related to process quality as well as various applications of food-related nanoscale science and technology. Prior to his appointment at UBC, he was a Professor in the Department of Food Science, Chair of the Department of Food Science, Assistant Vice President Research, a Canada Research Chair in Food Protein Structure, the Scientific Director of the Food Institute at the University of Guelph and the Vice Chair of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Institute of Nutrition, Metabolism and Diabetes. Prof. Yada is the EiC for Trends in Food Science and Technology (Elsevier Food Science journal), and is on the editorial boards for several journals. He is the author of over 200 refereed journal publications and several book chapters.
