Research Interests
Research focuses on the fate, transport, and vectoring of microbial and chemical stressors in the environment, including risks associated with exposure to microbial agents in air, water, soils, and produce grown for human consumption.
Biotechnology development includes macroalgae cultivation for nutrient bioextraction from wastewater treatment plant ocean outfalls, and through collaborations, biosensors for pathogen detection and measuring oxidative stress in antibiotic-resistant microorganisms, small-scale anaerobic digester development, and electrical discharge plasma reactors for sterilization of liquid foods.
