My laboratory at the Water Resources Research Center at the University of Hawaii is dedicated to producing
research that is of the highest quality and responsive to the needs of Hawaii. We conduct research that
identifies, characterizes, and develops solutions for water and environmental problems in Hawaii and on
other Pacific Islands. Our research is predominantly focused on microbial water quality and related public
health issues.
We provide research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students through their respective
programs at the Departments of Microbiology and other academic units at the University of Hawaii.
