Water analysis is a cornerstone of the SRP says Prof Bevin Engelward who heads @MIT_SRP Without the work of researchers like Plata and Bugher, the other chemists and engineers wouldn’t know precisely what’s in the community’s water. @techreview

As part of the MIT Superfund Research Program, Nicolette Bugher is working to expose the poisons lurking in our environment and discover what they mean for human health.
