Description:In 2011, three federal agencies—the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS)—created the Interagency Food Safety Analytics Collaboration (IFSAC). Its purpose is to improve coordination of federal food safety analytic efforts and address cross-cutting priorities for food safety data collection, analysis, and use. Since its inception, IFSAC’s focus has been foodborne illness source attribution: identifying which foods are the most important sources of selected major foodborne illnesses. As part of this effort, IFSAC now produces annual estimates for four priority pathogens: Salmonella, Escherichia coli O157, Listeria monocytogenes, and Campylobacter.
Federal agencies and food safety experts rely on these attribution analyses to inform strategic planning and risk-based decision-making; estimate benefits of interventions; and evaluate the impact of interventions, such as new or revised regulations, policies, and performance standards. By bringing together data from a variety of sources, broadly exploring an array of methods and disciplines, and developing sound analytical methods, IFSAC scientists can improve estimates of the sources of foodborne illness.
