Properly harnessing available data requires innovative and validated solutions that circumvent hype and buzzwords and instead focus on using advanced data access, analytics and predictive modelling harmoniously. Such solutions can then be used to underpin important safety and risk assessment decisions made by the industry and governments.
Prof. Fanning has been helping develop applications around genome sequencing to minimise risks in global food production and improve food safety decision-making. Two practical outcomes have emerged: prevent contamination problems
One of the most valuable applications for mathematical or scientific models is to be able to accurately predict the future. In the absence of a crystal ball, how you go about that depends on what you want to predict, and on what you already know.
