Wastewater-Based Surveillance of Antibiotics: A Citizen Science Approach

Team: Clark Scholars Class of 2025

Program:

Center for Leadership Education

Project Description:

This project proposes a citizen science approach to
monitor antibiotic concentrations in wastewater
across the U.S. Community volunteers will collect
samples and measure antibiotic concentrations
using a low-cost testing kit, with data aggregated
into a dashboard to visualize geographic and
temporal trends. The project aims to provide
valuable information for addressing antimicrobial
resistance and engage communities in public
health efforts.
