Houda Berrada Ramdani

Houda Berrada Ramdani is an Associate Professor in the Department of Preventive Medicine at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences, University of Valencia. Her work bridges toxicology and food science, with a strong focus on assessing contaminants in food and environmental matrices.

Her research interests lie in the areas of toxicology, particularly the detection and risk assessment of chemical contaminants in food and water. She applies analytical methods to study substances such as urea-derived herbicides and explores alternative testing strategies for toxicity evaluation.

She is an active member of two research groups: RiskTox, which develops alternative methods for determining toxic effects and assessing risks of contaminants and mixtures, and ALISOST, which focuses on innovative technologies for sustainable food. Previously, she contributed to the COAL group on food contamination.

She earned her PhD from the University of Valencia in 2003 with a thesis titled Determinación de herbicidas derivados de la urea en aguas y vegetales, supervised by Dr. Juan Carlos Moltó Cortés and Dr. Guillermina Font.

Houda Berrada Ramdani has contributed to research in food safety and toxicology through collaborative projects and supervision, although specific students and grants are not listed in the available text. Her work supports the advancement of safer food systems and sustainable technologies.
