What’s in the Water?: Exploring Water Research Through Different Lenses

What's in the water? Why different lenses?

Our panelists all worked in water research this summer, yet each experience is unique in the how and why. Our panelists addressed questions in wastewater treatment, drinking water quality, precipitation monitoring, and contamination prediction, bringing experience with various research methods including water sampling, data collection, and machine learning modeling. Our panelists will highlight the importance of these methods and how these can be applied to a variety of research purposes. Finally, we will discuss the challenges we encountered, as well as insights we gained through our research.
