Vinny Project -

VINNY was recently featured at the BBV Research Seminar on November 20th, with a presentation delivered by Evelyn Maribel Condori Peñaloza, a postdoctoral researcher from the Project partner, the Université de Tours.

The presentation focused on the task within the VINNY integrated strategy: bioactives derived from grapes and the precise identification of metabolites using multi-omics approaches.

This research is central to the Project's goal of significantly advancing the understanding and valorisation of specialised metabolites.

As a leading public research institution in the Centre-Val de Loire region, the Université de Tours brings invaluable expertise in research, collaboration, and innovation. Their core expertise spans grape byproduct extracts, plant metabolomics, purification processes, and in vitro screening techniques, which directly inform their efforts to characterise new bioactives that can be used in the development of biopesticides and biostimulants.

The Université de Tours' vital contribution is key to advancing sustainable viticulture across Europe.
