I have conducted research with emphasis on rapid detection of pathogens in food, concentrating particularly on pathogenic E. coli and Listeria monocytogenes. I have also conducted research in the FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition and been active in regional and national activities in AOAC International. I recently completed a comprehensive redesign of the standard method for enumeration of E. coli (biotype 1) in foods, which is under consideration to replace the existing method used nationwide in the FDA Bacteriological Analytical Manual.
