Who’s Minding the Store? – The Current State of Food Safety and How It Can Be Improved

Bill Marler and 35 of his food safety colleagues will be speaking at a packed day-and-a-half Seminar in Seattle, April 11-12, 2008.

From the brochure:

Seattle was the epicenter of the Jack in the Box E. coli outbreak that sickened 600 and killed four 15 years ago. In addition to explaining how our present system works, this program is intended to discuss how changing consumer preferences are affecting the development and distribution of food, examine whether federal, state and industry oversight roles are changing, and discuss how the regulatory and judicial processes can be most efficiently balanced.

Full conference and registration information is available at http://www.marlerblog.com/Who’s%20Minding%20the%20Store.pdf.
