Research summary
AI-generated

Drew Capone studies how disease-causing microbes spread through the environment, particularly in places without modern sewer systems. Much of the work focuses on sanitation improvements (such as latrines and fecal sludge treatment) and their effects on childhood gut infections, along with tracking pathogens in wastewater, soil, and even insects in cities like Maputo, Mozambique. The research also examines antimicrobial resistance and methods for detecting contamination sources.
