We identify and evaluate best practices for foodborne disease surveillance and outbreak investigation, and provide resources for local, state, and federal public health professionals.
An Integrated Food Safety Center of Excellence
In 2012, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention designated Minnesota as an Integrated Food Safety Center of Excellence (COE) to help fulfill its role in the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). The Minnesota Integrated Food Safety Center of Excellence, a partnership between the Minnesota Department of Health and the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, is committed to improving training, research, continuing education, and outreach related to food safety and the prevention of foodborne illness.
