Congrats to every Autonian involved in PHIS and other food safety related projects!

Hi Andrew,

 

This is great stuff! Thanks for sending this along. 

 

Artur, would you be available for potential media interviews surrounding this topic in April?

 

Thanks!
Jim

This is a very interesting story that someone out there might be interested in. The same kinds of machine learning algorithms used by big banks and internet companies can help keep us safe from foodborne disease outbreaks.

This is very cool :D
I am really pleased that finally the government themselves decided to go public
about our hard work over the past several years (for some reason, they wanted
to stay relatively quiet for a long while):

Congrats to everyone involved in the process! Lately, it was primarily Jarod
who did an outstanding job making all the users of our tools extremely happy.
It took us many years to develop the technology, prove it and get it to the current
level of user acceptance, and many Autonians and our friends contributed,
including our respected Dean who sparked the Lab's involvement in this application
domain all the way back in 2003 (yes, I know, he is _that_ old!).

Cheers!
Artur
