Research summary
AI-generated

Ganesan Narsimhan studies the physical and chemical behavior of food materials, focusing on starch, proteins, and food emulsions (mixtures like oil-in-water systems used in many processed foods). Work includes modeling how starch granules swell and thicken during cooking, how egg yolk lipids interact with starch, and how ultrasound and antimicrobial peptides can be used to kill foodborne bacteria. Much of the research combines laboratory experiments with computational simulations to predict food texture and safety properties.

Publication output was highest around 2017-2019 and has declined and become sporadic in recent years, with very low or zero output in several years between 2020 and 2025.
