Dr. Shun-Hsien Chang is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Food Safety and Risk Management, National Taiwan Ocean University, Taiwan. His research interests include food safety, food microbiology, and the development of chitosan-based functional materials for food applications. His current work focuses on antimicrobial biopolymers, bio-based food packaging materials, and innovative approaches to improve food safety and quality. Dr. Chang has experience supervising international students and provides mentorship in laboratory techniques related to biomaterials development, microbiological evaluation, and food safety research.

The Food Safety and Biomaterials Laboratory at the Institute of Food Safety and Risk Management, National Taiwan Ocean University, focuses on research related to food safety, applied food microbiology, and the development of bio-based functional materials for food applications.

Our laboratory particularly emphasizes the utilization of natural biopolymers such as chitosan for antimicrobial materials, sustainable food packaging, and food safety enhancement. Through interdisciplinary approaches integrating food microbiology, biomaterial science, and analytical techniques, our research aims to develop innovative strategies to improve food quality and safety.

The laboratory provides training in microbiological analysis, biomaterial preparation, antimicrobial evaluation, and food safety assessment. Graduate and visiting students are encouraged to participate in experimental design, laboratory research, and collaborative projects related to food safety and sustainable biomaterials.
