Food Protection Trends - September/October 2016 - 387
BEYOND the BIO
Needless to say, Bob enjoys the
challenges and thrills of solving food
safety issues. He has served on a wide
range of national and international
committees on food safety, including
being a U.S. delegate to the Codex
Alimentarius Committee on Food
Hygiene. He is also co-developer of the
USDA Pathogen Modeling Program.
Challenges and thrills guide his
passions away from the office as well
- music and poker.
Time Out for Fun and Games
"Music has been part of my life
almost as long as my interest in
microbiology," explains Bob, who
started playing the guitar at age 14.
Today, he plays in amateur rock and
roll bands and is refreshing his skills
through advanced guitar lessons.
"Actually, I am trying to change some
bad playing habits I developed over
years of doing it myself," he confesses.
Whether it's playing for his own
enjoyment, irregular performances
with his band or solo shots on open
mic nights, Bob's music is shaped by
his interest in the folk rock music of
his youth and the blues. Between work
and guitar, Bob manages to sandwich
in time for poker tournaments. "It's
a perfect game to put my math and
predictive microbiology to work
outside the lab environment," he
explains. "It's not about winning high
stakes games, it's about keeping my
mind active."
What's Ahead on Bob's Busy
Schedule?
Rumor has it that there may be more
guitar playing, poker games, spending
time with his wife and daughter and
traveling for pleasure in Bob's future.
"I'm thinking about scaling back this
fall," admits Bob. "Maybe work a few
days from home and a few days from
campus." According to Bob's wife,
Pamela, a retired attorney, that means
working 10-hour days five days a week
instead of seven!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FOOD TO EAT (AND WHY)?
I lean to Italian and Asian cuisines. One is comfort food for me (I am part Italian)
and the other has fascinating blends of flavors and textures.
WHAT FOOD WILL YOU AVOID AT ALL COSTS (AND WHY)?
There are only a couple of foods that I have allowed my profession to get in the way
of sampling: raw shellfish, wild mushrooms picked by anyone other than a trained
mycologist, and eating home-canned low acid foods.
CARE TO SHARE A POKER TIP WITH US?
The key to winning poker is to understand probability, avoid "feeling" about the
outcome of the next hand and learn the betting patterns of your opponents and
make sure you survive long enough to take advantage of it.
WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE MUSICIANS?
Mostly people from my youth, and many are still performing - Eric Clapton,
Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell, to name a few.
WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR MOST MEMORABLE IAFP EXPERIENCE
(AND WHY)? I consider being invited to give the Silliker lecture and receiving the
President's Lifetime Achievement Award to be among the highlights of my career.
WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOST INTERESTING DESTINATION YOU
VISITED (AND WHY)? I have had the opportunity to spend time in 74 countries.
The most interesting one will surely be the next one I visit.
