My source to tap investigation of NTM in drinking water is up on bioRxiv Microbiology! Shoutout to the amazing co authors that made the study possible Sarah Pogieter (MacRae) Soojung Lee Matthew Vedrin Lutgarde Raskin Lindsay Caverly U-M CEE
1/ Kudos to Matthew Oliver, Mark Ungrin, & Joe Vipond. It's an opinion piece, but rooted in logic and truth. For an airborne infectious disease you lower inhalation dose & the ways to do so don't require empirical RCTs. Basic engineering science will do.

How can we maximize the efficiency of the #ElectricGrid without resorting to expensive, infrastructure projects? A suite of relatively cheap #GridEnhancingTechnologies can have a big impact. A PNAS Core Concept: ow.ly/IymX50QzZby #renewables #AlernativeEnergy #NetZero
Happy to share our latest paper in Water Research:
Many studies have shown that applying UV-A before UV-C causes a synergistic effect; we traced that effect to damage to the transfer RNA, which plays a critical role in protein synthesis: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
