Research summary
AI-generated

Teresa Carvajal's work focuses on the physical and surface properties of powders and particulate materials, including food powders (like coffee), starches, and pharmaceutical formulations. Her research examines how particle characteristics affect behaviors such as flow, wettability, and surface energy, with applications spanning food science and drug delivery (including inhaled formulations like dry powder and metered-dose inhalers). This work sits at the intersection of materials science, pharmaceutical sciences, and food science.
