Deputy Commissioner for Food Policy & Response
Food & Drug Administration (FDA)
Deputy FDA Commissioner Frank Yiannas provides an update on FDA’s work to bend the curve of foodborne illness. In January 2021, FDA marked the 10-year anniversary of the signing into law of the Food Safety Modernization Act and in July will mark the first anniversary of the New Era of Smarter Food Safety blueprint, which builds on FSMA achievements. Enhancing food traceability is a priority that bridges FSMA and the New Era, with other subjects including the development of predictive analytics, safety considerations for new business models, and support for the establishment of food safety cultures throughout the supply chain.
