Dr. Heather Brown’s lab is focused on developing low-cost methods for routine environmental monitoring. We are currently developing a hand-held, field-deployable spectrofluorimeter capable of quantification of specific contaminants of emerging concern. In-house developed, DNA-based molecular aptamer beacons will provide the concentration-dependent fluorescent light specific to unique contaminants detected in this instrument.
