Research summary

Amanda J. Deering's research focuses on food safety, particularly detecting and reducing harmful bacteria (like Salmonella and Listeria) on fresh produce such as cantaloupe, lettuce, and cucumbers. Her work spans practical topics like washing treatments for produce and hand-hygiene training, as well as technology development, including biosensors, lateral-flow test strips, and smartphone- or camera-based pathogen detection tools. This combination suggests a lab that bridges food microbiology with sensor and imaging technology for real-world food safety applications.
