In 2020, PhD student Xin Zhang began her research assistant position in Dr. Neitzel’s lab and joined the mission for community environmental monitoring for the SARS-CoV-2 virus to provide additional evidence on potential transmission risks through air, surface contact, and wastewater.
Using the field data, Xin estimated the risk of infection using a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) model. Read more about the study. She presented her findings at the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) annual conference. See the AIHA program.
