Expert meetings
Our work
JEMRA is an international scientific expert group administered jointly by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and WHO. JEMRA provides scientific risk assessment for selected pathogens to the Codex Alimentarius Commission, develops guidelines for risk assessments and provides expert advice on risk management.
JEMRA expert roster
JEMRA is tasked with the evaluation of different aspects of microbiological hazards in the food supply. This roster consists of scientific experts who have submitted applications in response to public calls for experts on Risk Assessment of Microbiological Hazards related to food safety. The applications were reviewed by the FAO and WHO Secretariats and by an external referee, and selections made on the basis of the criteria outlined in the call for experts. Scientists of the roster will be considered for future meetings of JEMRA according to expertise required for the respective meetings.
