## Abstract

Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services 
 State Public Health Laboratory 
 Project Abstract for FOA PAR-20-105 
 Laboratory Flexible Funding Model 
Discipline A (Microbiology): Track 4 Whole Genome Sequencing 
Purpose: 
The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) State Public Health Laboratory 
(MSPHL) seeks FDA cooperative agreement funding opportunity to enhance the Genome Trakr 
network by capturing the current and evolving genomic diversity of non-clinical pathogens 
across FDA relevant areas. 
The goals and outcomes of this cooperative agreement include the following: 
 1. The MSPHL will sequence a variety of Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Shiga-toxin 
 producing E. coli and other foodborne related organisms. 
 2. The MSPHL will upload the data generated to the National Center for Biotechnology 
 Information which can be accessed by researchers and public health officials for real- 
 time comparison and analysis. 
 3. The real time comparison and analysis will aid and reduce the time needed to solve 
 foodborne illness outbreak investigations and reduce foodborne illnesses and deaths.
