Abstract

Project summary/abstract (Admin) The state of Pennsylvania and its associated GenomeTrakr network has consistently met all obligations of the Food and Drug Administration’s program since joining in 2016. The team, led by Drs. Edward Dudley (Penn State) and Nkuchia M’ikanatha (Pennsylvania Department of Health) have established effective standard operating procedures including the use of controlled documents, to ensure the highest quality data is uploaded to the Pathogen Detection database. This project also has the full backing and access to abundant resources of both organizations, which will continue driving success.
