      About the Author

      Par est scientia laboris.

      (Work is ever the mate of science.)

      Prof. F. Xavier Malcata was born in Malange (Angola) in 1963, and earned: a B.Sc. degree in Chemical Engineering (5‐year program), from the University of Porto (UP, Portugal) in 1986 (with first class honors); a Ph.D. degree in Chemical Engineering (with a distributed minor in Food Science, Statistics and Biochemistry), from the University of Wisconsin (UW, USA) in 1991; an equivalent Doctoral degree in Biotechnology – food science and technology, from the Portuguese Catholic University (UCP, Portugal) in 1998; and a Habilitation degree in Food Science and Engineering, also from UCP, in 2004.

Prof. Malcata has held academic appointments as: Teaching Assistant at UCP in 1985–1987 and at UW in 1988; Lecturer at UW in 1989; Assistant Professor at UCP in 1991–1998; Associate Professor at UCP in 1998–2004; and Full Professor at UCP in 2004–2010, Superior Institute of Maia (ISMAI, Portugal) in 2010–2012, and UP since 2012. He also held professional appointments as: Dean of the College of Biotechnology of UCP in 1998–2008; President of the Portuguese Society of Biotechnology in 2003–2008; Coordinator of the Northern Chapter of Chemical Engineering of the Portuguese Engineering Accreditation Board in 2004–2009; Official Delegate, in 2002–2013, of the Portuguese
