Course introduction

This module is divided into 3 units: - Introduction on Food Safety: This part is an introduction to the general aspects of Food Safety in Europe such as the protagonists in the control of food safety, legislation and related economic impact. Furthermore, the current developments and discoveries in Food Microbiology using NGS techniques will be also treated. - Major concern Pathogens: In this part the food-borne pathogens representing the major concerns for Public Health such as Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella spp, L. monocytogenes, E. coli STEC and Hepatitis E virus will be treated. - WGS applications: In this part we explain how the -omic sciences can represent an essential support for public health surveillance, molecular epidemiology and risk analysis. The basic concepts and procedures to analyse the transmission pathways and trace sources of epidemic infections as well as to evaluate microbial virulence and determinants of resistance to antimicrobial drugs are illustrated. Units: 3.1 Introduction on Food Safety 3.2 Major concern pathogens (EFSA-ECDC reports) 3.3 WGS applications Duration: 600 hours
