Research summary

Mark H. Weir's research focuses on assessing and managing microbial health risks in water systems and indoor environments, including drinking water, building plumbing, and hospital settings. He uses quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) methods, sometimes combined with machine learning, to study pathogens like Legionella and Mycobacterium avium complex and to inform water safety guidelines and infection control practices. Prospective students would likely engage with environmental and public health engineering questions bridging microbiology, water quality, and the built environment.
