Dr. Bwalya Lungu was recognized for her work as vice chair of the Salmonella committee at the USDA-National Poultry Improvement Plan 44th Biennual conference. She was awarded the Kauffmann-White Award.

The USDA-National Poultry Improvement Plan's mission is to provide a cooperative Industry-State-Federal program through which new diagnostic technology can be effectively applied to the improvement of poultry and poultry products throughout the country, and to establish the regulatory standard in sample collection, diagnostic tests performed, and the laboratory protocols for conducting tests.

Congratulations to Dr. Lungu!
