Pascal Bonnarme

Pascal Bonnarme is a research director at SayFood-INRAE (France). He has expertise in fermentation of protein-based matrices, food microbial communities (fungi, bacteria), microbial biochemistry, metabolism related to the fermentation/ripening process (e.g. proteolysis, sulfur metabolism, amino acids catabolism, deacidification), development of a foodomics approach (e.g. metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, volatilomics) in fermented products, microbial and functional ecology, synthetic ecology, biodiversity of fermented foods ecosystems, control/formulation of microbial communities adapted to the food matrix to get desired functionalities.
Pascal Bonnarme coordinated several projects in which dynamic, functional meta-omic approaches - including (meta)-transcriptome and metagenome analyses - together with metabolome and aroma compounds analyses of cheese-ripening ecosystems were successfully developed to get an integrated view of microbial consortia functioning. He developed expertise in the fermentation of alternative sources of proteins (eg leguminous). He is currently involved Domino (2023-2028) and AlinOVeg (2023-2029) projects.
