Addressing and solving global issues in food safety requires a multidisciplinary approach - integrating knowledge of different cultures, business, politics, history, and science. Participants will become familiar with fundamentals of microbial spoilage and its effect on food production. We will explore the different kinds of microorganisms responsible for food spoilage, including mechanisms of contamination. Real-world case studies will help reinforce principles and simple, hands-on activities will illustrate the vast microbial world. Participants will also learn about current regulations that aim to keep the US food supply safe. Please note, because of planned experiments, this seminar may last up to three hours.
