Amanda Bries

Majored in Food Science And Human Nutrition (H Sci)
Iowa State University, Class of 2017
From Manchester, IA
Research graduate assistant completing my Master's degree thesis focused on a novel iron-enriched Aspergillus oryzae for fortifying commonly consumed condiments. Chicken bouillon is an everyday staple in Sub saharan Africa, where greater than 60% of the population is anemic. With anemia being such a complicated nutrient disorder, our lab is establishing new technology to address this global burden. I am passionate about my research, in addition to being an active voice on campus as a senator of the Graduate and Professional Student Senate.
