Project Highlights

Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment Interdisciplinary Instructional Institute Vehicle (QMRA IV)

Funded by National Institutes of Health

QMRA IV is an interdisciplinary program for training and mentoring in microbial risk analysis. Participants will gain hands-on experience with real-world case studies to develop microbial risk analyses to achieve safety and health goals, and will interact with top scientists in public health, environmental engineering, microbiology, epidemiology, communications, public policy, and QMRA. The course includes training and mentoring in team science, QMRA, risk communication, risk management, and more.  

The QMRA IV will be held in a hybrid format, and participants are expected to attend BOTH online and in-person courses:

  • June 1st – July 30th, 2023 – Virtual Asynchronous and Synchronous Course
