The Food Research Institute (FRI) is the portal to food safety at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Our resources include expertise in microbiology, food science, dairy science, meat science, veterinary medicine, plant pathology, and food allergy. FRI conducts basic and applied research on foodborne bacteria, molds, protozoa and viruses; we focus on microbial and toxin detection systems, pre-harvest and post-harvest intervention strategies, and mitigating diet-related diseases.
Our sponsors participate in collaborative research with FRI faculty and the highly regarded Applied Food Safety Laboratory, which works with Listeria, Clostridium, Bacillus, enterohemorrhagic E. coli, Staphylococcus, and Salmonella in a wide variety of refrigerated and shelf-stable foods. We are a recognized process authority for pasteurized process cheese products. Customized literature reviews and training sessions and industry sabbaticals are also available.

Sep 18, 2014 "Symposium: Rapid Methods for Food Safety Microbiology Co-organized by FRI and IFSH"
Description:
Advances in molecular and analytical technologies have led to the development of new rapid detection methods that provide improved accuracy, sensitivity, reproducibility and faster time-to-result than traditional methods. Whether used for foodborne disease tracking, surveillance, or regulatory action, methods to detect and identify foodborne pathogens are essential to ensuring public health. Equally critical to the discussion is an understanding of the relationships among microorganisms and the food processing environment. These interactions influence foodborne pathogen colonization, survival, biofilm formation and detection. This symposium will address the critical role and state of rapid detection methods in key food industry segments. Given that methods and approaches vary widely across and within industry segments - what are the challenges to ensuring a timely and reliable food safety assessment? How can current and emerging methods best be applied? Critical questions like these will be explored in this thought-provoking symposium.
Early registration will be available online at www.iit.edu/ifsh after July 21, 2014.
Location: Chicago Marriott Southwest at Burr Ridge, Burr Ridge, IL
