Interdisciplinary Research Group 2: Quantum Sensing for Sustainable Agriculture

The crisis/global threat: Today's animal agriculture and row crop operations are not sustainable long-term. 

Two pie charts that show total US emissions in 2020, and a breakdown of agricultural emissions in 2020

The goal: Develop low-cost, reliable biosensors with high efficiency and spectroscopy-increased sensitivity.
