Sanja Ilic Ph.D.

Sanja Ilic, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor in Human Nutrition in the Department of Human Sciences at The Ohio State University, and a Food Safety State Specialist. Her research interests include investigating and promoting food safety, preventing food safety risks among food handlers and consumers, and microbial safety of fresh fruits and vegetables, including contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., STEC, etc. Her research provides novel food safety interventions to control and eliminate foodborne pathogens and develop innovative approaches for knowledge transfer targeting specific populations, with an overall goal of improving health and wellness. She has also developed the Good Agricultural Guide for Hydroponic Producers, where her study findings, along with other research evidence, are translated into best practices for growing safe crops.
