Staff - Stephanie Clark

Dr. Stephanie Clark joined the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition at Washington State University in January, 1998, after receiving a Ph.D. in Food Science from Cornell University (1997). She also received her B.S. in Animal Science (1990) and M.S. in Food Science (1993) from Cornell University.

Dr. Clark's research team focuses on microbiology, chemistry and processing of dairy products, but also works in the area of product development and sensory quality of foods and beverages.  Specifically, she studies the chemical and microbiological factors influencing the flavor, texture, functional properties, and safety of foods made from the milk of cows, goats and sheep.  Of particular current interest to her group is understanding and preventing the occurrence of calcium lactate crystals in Cheddar cheese, and improving the flavor-binding and functional properties of whey proteins.  Stephanie advises undergraduate and graduate students and teaches undergraduate and graduate courses.  She is also the advisor for the award-winning Food Product Development Team and the coach for the Dairy Products Evaluation Team.
