Mariana Morales de la Peña has a Ph.D. in Food Science and Technology from the University of Lleida, in Spain. As part of Tecnológico de Monterrey, she is currently the regional coordinator of the Biotechnology graduate program. In addition, she is a full-time research professor at the institution, creating collaborations and managing several food research and development projects with various companies such as Alpura, with whom she completed a research project within the Alpura Chair.

During her postdoc at the Tecnológico de Monterrey, she collaborated on a project that sought the development of functional foods and nutraceutical products through the application of emerging technologies.

Professor Mariana Morales has extensive experience in the area of ​​product development. Among her work, stands out the collaboration with companies such as Mead Johnson Nutritions®, in Mexico City, in the elaboration of products for the nutrition of babies and children like developing new milk formulas for infants. In previous years, she collaborated in the design of a tuna production plant and in the development of derived products such as juice, jam, and minimally processed tunas for the company Integral Solutions for the Food Industry S.A.C.V. in Puebla, Mexico.

She has co-written articles for renowned scientific journals such as Food Engineering Reviews, Journal of Food and Bioprocess Technology, and Journal of Food Control, among others.

In addition, she has participated in important scientific conferences such as the 33rd EFFoST International Conference, Sustainable Food Systems - Performing by Connecting, which took place in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, organized by the European Federation of Food Science and Technology.
