The FDA Podcast With a Very Long Name
Let me preface this by saying that I think the FDA does good and important work. However, I think it might be overestimating society’s interest in examining its New Era of Smarter Food Safety Blueprint, which aims to help the agency trace food to its source in seconds and prevent foodborne illnesses.
The FDA’s show, the New Era of Smarter Food Safety TechTalk Podcast, aims to break down the blueprint for the public and explain technology’s role in carrying out its goals. Published quarterly since 2021, the podcast has featured episodes on whole genome sequencing, artificial intelligence, and data exchange. Each episode runs about 45 minutes.
Considering the amount of emails I get from the FDA about something that’s been recalled or contaminated, this is very important! I just don’t know if I… want to listen to a 45-minute podcast about it. Especially one that you have to actually go to the FDA’s website to listen to.
