Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.
Dr Cristian Varela has 20 years of research experience in academia and the private sector having worked in Australia, Chile, South Africa, France and Canada in the fields of microbiology, bioprocess engineering, fermentation technologies, systems biology and sensory analysis.
Past research activities include the development and characterisation of yeast strains to produce reduced-alcohol wines, evaluation of the effect of different environmental conditions, such as temperature and nutrient availability, on yeast metabolism and wine flavour and aroma; and the evaluation of gene modification techniques to shift yeast metabolism away from ethanol production. Dr Varela is recently interested in applying this knowledge in new areas within the food industry including coffee production, cacao (chocolate), brewing, distilling and kombucha.
Dr Varela has coordinated and delivered workshops to wine industry members throughout Australia (Hunter Valley, McClaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Riverland, other) disseminating information on novel fermentation approaches aimed at decreasing alcohol concentration in wine.
Dr Varela is member of editorial boards for peer-review journals: Applied and Environmental Microbiology; International Journal of Food Microbiology; and Food Microbiology. Reviewer for more than 20 peer-reviewed journals.
Evaluator for grant-awarding bodies, including: ERANET (ERASYSAPP, Europe-wide initiative for Applied Systems Biology); FWO (Research Foundation Flanders); CONICYT (National Commission for Scientific and Technological Research, Chile).
Recipient of Endeavour Award Fellowship in 2015. Four months of research as a visiting scientist at the Donnelly Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research at the University of Toronto.
Media interviews for magazines/journals including Scientific American, Wine Spectator, Wine-Searcher, Microbe magazine, The Australian & New Zealand Grapegrower & Winemaker.
My research interests include:
- Investigating and reporting the microbial populations associated with the fermentation of Australian aboriginal beverages. This included way-a-linah made from sap from the cider gum, a Eucalyptus tree native to the remote Central Highlands of Tasmania, and the yeast microbiota associated with flowers, fruits and palm trees from Erub Island in the Torres Strait.
- Bioprospecting thousands of individual yeast isolates from grape must, determining their taxonomy, and evaluating their phenotype with the aim of providing novel yeast starter cultures for winemaking.
- Evaluating the effect of winemaking interventions, including sulfur dioxide addition, aeration and fermentation temperature, on yeast population dynamics during un-inoculated wine fermentations.
- Characterising Brettanomyces bruxellensis industry isolates and developing molecular tools to genetically modify this species.
- Development of a Systems Biology approach to study wine yeast fermentation.
- Evaluation of the ability of wine spoilage microorganisms to increase their tolerance to antimicrobial agents.
Recent funding awarded for a collaborative research project between the University of Adelaide and the Australian Wine Research Institute to characterise the microbial communities associated with coffee fermentation in Australia. This research will be commencing in the coming months.
I am available to supervise Honours projects in 2024-225. Contact me to discuss further but possible projects include:
1) Evaluating the genomic and metabolic diversity of Australian native yeasts.
In this project we will sequence the genome of several native yeasts (potentially 100 different yeasts), characterise their nutritional requirements, and evaluate the metabolites produced during yeast growth. We will link genome and metabolome data to characterise the diversity of Australian native yeasts populations.
2) Can Australian native yeasts be used for breadmaking?
In this project we will evaluate if Australian native yeasts have the required metabolic traits to be used for making bread. Promising strains will also be evaluated for aroma and flavour profile. This project is part of a collaboration with researchers from the University of Melbourne and may involve spending some time in their lab.
