Matters of Fact versus Matters of Concern, Shellfish Food Safety in 2017.

Dorothy Jean McCoubrey

Dorothy-Jean’s career has been immersed in environmental public health; 30 years in New Zealand regulatory roles and the last 10 years expanding to food safety matters in other countries, ranging from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. While doing practical work in the trenches, she has also earned a BSc in Zoology and Botany from Massey University, along with a Masters in Public Health and a Masters in Environmental Science from the University of Auckland. In 2013 she was awarded a two-year education scholarship with the Seafood Branch of the US Food & Drug Administration. Since then she has been pondering the truth, and the alternative truth, of science and governance while completing her PhD with the University of Auckland. Her professional activities include all aspects of public health, yet the shellfish food safety world remains her passion.
