Who we are
The Research Group (HIBRO, PAIDI AGR-170) belonging to the Dpt. of Food Science and Technology of the University of Cordoba is composed of highly specialized professors and researchers in food science and nutrition involving different activities such as design of experiments, optimization of food formulations and development of decision support tools for food quality and food safety. The Group has extensive experience (> 25 years) in the field of predictive microbiology, which currently has great relevance in the establishment of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) systems and provides scientific support for the estimation of the shelf- life and the quantitative microbiological risk assessment in foods. The HIBRO research group has been consolidated through an extensive research activity in the field of microbiological risk assessment in regional (> 15), national (> 20) and international (> 5) projects, as well as an extensive training activity and transfer of know-how to companies in the agri-food sector.
