Autosampler

Walter Lamar, executive director of Facilities, Safety and Compliance for the Miller School of Medicine, setting up an autosampler device to collect wastewater outside Lakeside Village on the Coral Gables Campus.

This collaborative study between the University of Miami in Florida and Weill Cornell Medicine in New York will generate, standardize, integrate, compare and make available to the RADx-rad Data Coordination Center (DCC), SARS-CoV-2 human surveillance and wastewater quantification data with various sampling, processing, detection, and analysis approaches.

UM has also initiated a pilot wastewater monitoring program to quantify the RNA of SARS-CoV-2 in effluents from building clusters on its three campuses.

Weill Cornell Medicine (WCM) has established an international consortium for SARS-CoV-2 environmental surveillance (MetaSUB), including developing a metagenomic map of wastewater from cities around the world.

The project will make all data, results, and models available to the community, thus providing a critical contribution to the national SARS-COV-2 RADx-rad Wastewater Detection Consortium.
