Dr. Anna Kowalski
Principal Researcher — Functional Foods
Dr. Anna Kowalski developed the pearl millet-chickpea blend pasta that achieved taste parity with durum wheat pasta in blind trials — a potential game-changer for the European gluten-free market. Her research on millet protein quality and digestibility has provided the scientific foundation for EU regulatory approvals of millet as a functional food ingredient.
