	Cohen, Joshua, and George Gray	Analysis to Inform Decisions: Evaluating BSE This presentation was given at the 1st International Conference on Microbiological Risk Assessment: Foodborne Hazards, held in Adelphi, MD on July 24-26, 2002. It provides an overview of a model to simulate pathways for cattle-derived BSE in U.S. cattle or in the human food supply and the effects that BSE in the U.S. system would have over time. Included is information on BSE infectivity, and sample simulation results are shown. The pdf version of this presentation is available here.
