WVU in the News: West Virginia University to receive federal funding for mobile wastewater testing lab
West Virginia University is set to receive $930,000 in federal funding to develop and equip a mobile wastewater testing laboratory for use across West Virginia. The mobile lab will help forecast infectious disease outbreaks and detect where drug misuse may be widespread.
Dr. Gordon Smith, the Stuart M. and Joyce N. Robbins Distinguished Professor in the WVU School of Public Health and an emergency medicine adjunct professor in the WVU School of Medicine, is one of the researchers involved in this project.
