Who is Yun-Hwa Peggy Hsieh?
Dr. Yun-Hwa Peggy Hsieh is a food scientist at Florida State University, where she serves as a Professor in the Department of Nutrition Food and Exercise Sciences.

This research is important not only to discourage the illegal practices of meat adulteration on the retail market for consumer protection but also to prevent the spread of Mad Cow Disease. She is an elected fellow of the Institute of Food Technologists and the International Academy of Food Science & Technology. It should also be noted that she received her Doctorate from Florida State University.
