Water, energy, and the environment are interconnected and interdependent. Innovation in these areas is critical to the future of our planet.
Somebody has an idea, you try it out, it works and you refine it. Collaborations are so important because you never know what you’re going to find.

University of Cincinnati environmental engineers and chemists developed a biosensor to detect toxins in surface water such as streams, rivers and lakes. Funded through National Science Foundation (NSF) grants, the research was recently featured in an NSF video. The research is led by Dionysios Dionysiou, professor of environmental engineering, and addresses the importance of detecting toxic products of cyanobacteria algal blooms, which are formed mainly by agricultural runoff.
