University of Saskatchewan researchers developing COVID-19 monitoring tools for small communities

Assistant Professor Kerry McPhedran in Civil Geological and Environmental Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan is part of a team of researchers tracking traces of COVID-19 in the wastewater from dorms on campus. The study aims to develop a system that can reliably monitor traces of the virus that causes COVID-19 in small sample sizes, like remote communities.
