Meet our lab members. Catch up on our latest updates. Read our journal publications. Watch our recorded talks and podcasts.
We mentor students, conduct original research, craft data-driven stories to communicate our findings, and provide implementation and policy advice through an ethical lens. Our research program uses a transdisciplinary approach to help answer the question: Is my water safe to drink?
