PhD student Sayalee Joshi attended an 11-day intensive workshop at the Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA III) institute hosted by Dr. Mark Weir (Ohio State University) and Dr. Jade Mitchell (Michigan State University) this past August 5-15. The QMRA workshop provides students with opportunities to interact with experts from multiple disciplines to work on an intensive risk assessment case study. Dr. Hamilton taught lectures on maximum likelihood estimation, determining monitoring targets using QMRA, and water quality in buildings.
