School Part of Coalition to Enhance Food Safety
The Western Center for Food Safety (WCFS)—a joint effort between UC Davis’ School of Veterinary Medicine and the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences—will join several other California organizations to launch a multi-year study to improve food safety through enhanced understanding of the ecology of human pathogens in the environment that may cause food-borne illness outbreaks, according to a U.S. Food and Drug Administration announcement today. WCFS joins the California Department of Food and Agriculture and agricultural stakeholders in the Central Coast of California in the project.
