Reference excerpt

Indrawati Oey (born 29 April 1970) is a New Zealand food scientist, full professor at the University of Otago.

Early life and education Oey was born in Malang, East Java, Indonesia in 1970.

Academic career After a PhD at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Oey moved to the University of Otago and rose to full professor and head of the Department of Food Sciences. She is a principal investigator of the Riddet Institute, a national food research centre in New Zealand. Her work has focused on the biochemical reactions that affect multiple aspects of food quality, including texture, flavour, colour, and nutrition. At Otago, she has led a project on applications of pulsed electric field equipment to improve food quality and efficiency of processing. She has also worked on edible food packaging to tackle problems of current plastic packaging.

Honours and awards In 2016 Oey was elected a Fellow of the New Zealand Institute of Food Science and Technology.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Indrawati Oey

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Indrawati Oey claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In chemistry, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Indrawati Oey before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Indrawati Oey ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Indrawati Oey

In research: Indrawati Oey appears in chemistry research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Indrawati Oey in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Indrawati Oey is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1970 births, Academic staff of KU Leuven, Academic staff of the University of Otago, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Indrawati Oey outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
