  HIGHLIGHTS

Julie Frost Dahl receives the NRS Young Rheologist Award 2025
We are excited to announce that this year's winner of the NRS Young Rheologist Award is Julie Frost Dahl.

The Young Rheologist Award is given to a young person, who has made outstanding work in basic or applied rheology at the graduate or postgraduate level.

Julie has recently completed her PhD at Aarhus University, Denmark under the supervision of Milena Corredig. In her research, she developed strategies for characterising and predicting anisotropic food structures, which is of great relevance for novel foods such as meat analogues. She now works as a scientist at IFF in Brabrand, Denmark.

Julie will deliver her award lecture "Measure, understand, and predict structure formation in plant-based anisotropic foods – using rheology" at the joint Nordic Rheology Conference & DRG Symposium 2025 in Berlin: https://nordicrheologysociety.org/Home/Nrc

Congratulations for this great and well-deserved achievement, Julie!
