Concepts in the Safety Assessment of Novel Food and Feed
[uo_show for=’loggedin’]
Welcome!
[/uo_show]This course discusses how people use information about foods to make basic decisions regarding food safety and how government regulators use similar information to address the safety of novel foods that may be introduced into their country’s food supply. It will teach which aspects of food are related to food safety, and it will provide an introduction to the problem formulation framework for organizing food safety assessments of novel foods, particularly those derived from genetically engineered (GE) plants.[uo_show for=’loggedin’]
