Researchers Developing Sensor-Based Decision-Making Model to Mitigate Salmonella Across Poultry Supply Chain, Drive Health Equity
A team of scientists funded by the National Science Foundation is developing a sensor-based decision-making system to assess and mitigate Salmonellacontamination across the entire poultry supply chain. Acknowledging the fact that rural and low-income communities have heightened rates of Salmonella infections, one of the goals of the project is to improve health equity by leveraging data to help industry, retail markets, food banks, and local health departments make informed food safety decisions.
The research is led by the University of Missouri, in collaboration with scientists from The University of Missouri—St. Louis, Lincoln University, Auburn University, and the University of Notre Dame.
