Marc Johnson
Research Interests The Marc Johnson’s lab’s main focus is development of next generations surveillance methods focused on air and water surveillance. For air, those methods are implementing air samplers in public locations and monitoring levels of known human pathogens. For water, the lab collects environmental and wastewater samples from across the country and performs high throughput sequencing the characterize the complete virile. The data from this project is used for monitoring both known and emerging pathogens. Traditionally a molecular virology lab focused on retroviral replication, the lab transitioned into developing a wastewater surveillance system for the state of Missouri during…
