The new Scientific Review of Ingredient Submissions (SRIS) program, a joint venture between the Association of American Feed Control Officials and K-State Olathe, is searching for subject matter experts to serve on scientific panels for the ingredient review process.

SRIS Program

In October 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and AAFCO terminated their ingredient review MOU process. In response, two additional ingredient review pathways have been established:

Both programs have been established with the goal of increasing the speed at which ingredients are reviewed for approval.

The SRIS program is lead by Dr. Haley Larson of K-State Olathe. However, the ingredient review panels will consist of subject matter experts from universities and independent consultants from across the U.S. The panels will conduct a scientific review of the proposed Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) ingredient before making a recommendation to the AAFCO membership for final approval and inclusion in the AAFCO Official Publication.

Review Panels

The SRIS program is currently accepting applications for scientific reviewers. If you or someone you know has expertise in livestock, companion animals, food microbiology, grains, extrusion and milling, alternative proteins and related fields, fill out the application to become a reviewer. Applicants must provide an updated CV outlining their expertise, as well as information regarding potential conflicts of interest in order to be considered. If you know a qualified candidate, fill out this form to recommend them as a reviewer.

Based on their contributions, reviewers are eligible for flat rate compensation. 


In addition to the call for reviewers, SRIS is also seeking a qualified candidate for the position of SRIS Program Manager. Interested candidates can apply online. Questions about this position can be sent to Haley Larson
