Jillien is a PhD student in Nutrition. Currently, Jillien’s research explores the bioactivity of proteins and peptides found in human milk, with a focus on preterm infants. Currently, she is working to develop new methods to simulate human digestion in vitro and investigating how human milk peptides released during infant digestion modulate the immune function of macrophages.
