The American Meat Science Association (AMSA) announces Dr. Lynn Delmore as the recipient of the 2021 Distinguished Extension-Industry Service Award. The award was established in 1965 to recognize outstanding achievements in meat science extension and service to the industry and is sponsored by the Foundation for Meat & Poultry Research & Education. Delmore is being honored at the 74th AMSA Reciprocal Meat Conference (RMC) awards presentation on August 17, 2021, in Reno, Nevada, hosted by the University of Nevada – Reno.
Lynn Delmore, co-founder and partner of Allied Food Safety, began her invaluable work at Golden State Foods (GSF). She worked directly with raw material suppliers to understand the evolving expectations for food safety, Hazard Analysis, and Critical Control Point (HACCP) systems, and animal welfare. Dr. Delmore has been invaluable in influencing the supply chain to embrace and implement these necessary changes. She understands that not every packer can implement systems in the same way and solve challenges with the same tools.
