Barbara Kowalcyk, PhD, MA, is faculty in the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health and directs the Institute for Food Safety and Nutrition Security (IFSAN). Dr. Kowalcyk’s research spans a range of topics related to food safety and infectious foodborne disease, including their intersection with nutrition security. She is particularly interested in advancing systems-based approaches to food safety that have a strong focus on disease prevention, consider the connections between human, animal and environmental health (i.e., One Health), and promote evidence-based decision from farm to fork to physician. Dr. Kowalcyk has extensively used epidemiologic methods, data analytics and risk analysis to assess food safety risks and potential intervention strategies in both the United States and the Global South. She has led multiple innovative, collaborative and large-scale research projects funded by, among others, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, United Kingdom Food and Commonwealth Development Office, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, USAID, USDA and FDA.
