Tracy (Jookyeong) Lee

PhD Candidate

Tracy (Jookyeong) Lee is a PhD candidate at the CASS Food Research Centre investigating food fussiness and its associations with oral tactile acuity and acceptance of food textures in 5-12-year-old children.

Tracy had a master’s degree in food science and worked in a food company, Nestle.

Her PhD aims to explore how individual variations in oral tactile acuity are associated with food textures in order to discover how this association is ultimately linked to food rejection in children, which is a characteristic of food fussiness.
