Despite the prevalence of food poisoning, there’s still much to learn about how dangerous pathogens survive and cause outbreaks. In a new USDA-funded study, University of Maryland College of Agriculture and Natural Resources researchers, led by Abani Pradhan are using machine learning and genomics to close these knowledge gaps. Pradhan has been awarded $591,000 by the USDA’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture to develop tools that better predict the conditions leading to foodborne illness outbreaks. go.umd.edu/1r1l
