GT Molecular Sponsored Event!

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) has become a State Center of Excellence (CoE) for WBS as recognized and funded by CDC. CASA, Stanford, Emory, and SFPUC are all partners with CDPH in this endeavor as we look at continued surveillance for COVID variants, and other pathogenic organisms which may be in wastewater. Speakers will include Amy Kirby (CDC) to provide an overview of the National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS) ; priorities for implementation and plans for the future; Angela Rabe of the CDPH team to provide an update on their efforts in California and of the CoE; Ali Boehm (Stanford) to provide an update on academic advances in WBS; and Naoko Munakata (LACSD) will provide the utility perspective on continued use of WBS.
