Research theme and outline
Fate of waterborne pathogens for the microbiological safety of drinking water supply systems
His research area includes behavior of waterborne pathogens (i.e. viruses, bacteria, protozoa) in drinking water sources and treatment processes in normal times and even in extreme weather events, such as flooding and water shortage which may become larger or more frequent with climate change, and quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) and risk management for the microbiological safety of drinking water supply systems.
