Manus Carey

Manus Carey is a Research Fellow at the School of Biological Sciences, Queen's University Belfast. His work focuses on food safety, nutrient-toxicant interactions, and agricultural chemistry, particularly in rice and cereal crops.

Education:

• Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Queen's University Belfast (2020), thesis: 'Mitigation of Inorganic Arsenic in Rice'

Research spans food safety systems, toxicant contamination in grains, and nutritional enhancement. Key projects include arsenic accumulation in rice, selenium speciation analysis, and parboiling techniques to improve grain quality. Recent work explores turmeric authentication and regional nutrient gradients in Bangladesh rice.

Scientific contributions cover environmental toxicology, food processing optimization, and analytical methodology development. Collaborations include KTP partnerships and cross-institutional networks.
