## Abstract

SC DHEC Admin Core 
The goal of the Laboratory Flexible Funding is to support the development of an integrated 
food safety system as directed by the FDA food safety modernization act (FSMA) by supporting 
and enhancing state food testing laboratories and encouraging collaboration among 
stakeholders at both the state and national level. The Public Health Laboratory (PHL) at the 
South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SC DHEC) is a multi- 
disciplinary, integrated source of diagnostic services including analytical support and 
consultation for physicians, private laboratories, hospitals, and county health departments. The 
laboratory testing involved in this grant will occur in the Microbiology Division. The PHL 
Microbiology Division consists of seven laboratories, five of which work together to provide an 
integrated laboratory response to food surveillance and foodborne disease outbreak testing. 
The Division Director and PI, Megan Davis, holds a Bachelor of Science in Bacteriology and a 
Master of Science in Food Science and Technology with an emphasis in Food Microbiology. The 
PI will lead the Grants Management Team consisting of the Principal Investigator (PI), 
Microbiology Division Program Manager, Administrator Manager and three laboratory 
supervisors in the implementation of this cooperative agreement. In order to meet the 
requirements of the cooperative agreement the PHL will continue active collaboration with 
other organizations whose representatives are key partners.
