Professor Cleland, of Massey University's Institute of Food, Nutrition and Human Health, was elected a Fellow of the International Academy of Food Science and Technology by the International Union of Food Science and Technology. He is the only New Zealander chosen from the 60 global experts made founding Fellows during the 10th World Congress of Food Science and Technology held recently in Sydney.
Professor Cleland has also been awarded the Ian Syminton Prize for Research and Development in Refrigeration Technology, at the recent International Institute of Refrigeration's 20th Congress.
That Institute also appointed him as a Vice-President of its Scientific Council. The Scientific Council five Vice-Presidents heading sections. Professor Cleland is Head of Section for "biology and food technology" for 1999-2003.
The same Institute also honoured former Massey University BTech graduate Dr Lucy Davey, who won the 1999 Clarence Birdseye Prize for cold chain and refrigerated treatment of food. This is an international prize for young researchers, awarded once every four years.
Professor Cleland says the awards prove yet again that Massey University is at the leading edge of world research in the application of refrigeration for preservation of food.
"It's continuing recognition. New Zealand is operating at an internationally competitive level," he says.
