## 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
