This grant, offered by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), is specifically for a CESU-affiliated partner to conduct crucial research. Its primary purpose is to fund the development of innovative, field-deployable microsensor technology designed for environmental monitoring. This advanced technology aims to accurately measure trace concentrations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in various aquatic environments. A key focus of the research will be addressing the challenges posed by complex chemical matrices often found in these settings, ensuring the developed sensors are robust, reliable, and effective for real-world applications. This initiative seeks to significantly enhance capabilities for detecting and monitoring these persistent and harmful pollutants.
