In recent years, shifting consumer demands have led to changes in the types of foods produced and how consumers obtain them. In 2022, a subscription-based meal company launched a new line of products. Shortly after, consumers complained about illness after consumption of one of these products. In this talk, Dr. Firestone will discuss her epidemiologic analysis of exposure data collected from a novel source – a law firm – in order to identify the food ingredient causing illnesses. She will discuss her study findings and their implications for food safety policies and public health data systems.
