The New Era of Smarter Food Safety — A Conversation with Karin Baron

This week, I welcomed back to the studio Karin F. Baron, Senior Regulatory Consultant at B&C and our consulting affiliate, The Acta Group. Karin and I discuss the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) initiative called the New Era of Smarter Food Safety. The goal of this initiative is to diminish the number of foodborne illness, which, surprisingly, has not diminished since the Food Safety Modernization Act was enacted 11 years ago. We discuss FDA's "blueprint for the future" as the initiative has come to be called, the use of emerging technologies to achieve FDA's goal, and how FDA is trying to change the culture of food safety in the United States.
