This researcher works on water quality and environmental contamination, with a focus on detecting fecal contamination in recreational and drinking water using molecular methods like qPCR (a technique for quantifying genetic material) and microbial source tracking. Related work spans mercury contamination in lake sediments, emerging contaminants like microplastics in drinking water, and wastewater-based monitoring of pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2. Earlier publications also touch on geochemistry and hydrothermal chemistry, suggesting a broader environmental science background before specializing in water quality monitoring.
