Researchers studying UV light usage for disinfection (IMAGE)
Caption
Biomedical engineers Kaiming Ye, department chair, and Guy German, Associate Professor/Graduate Program Director, developed a system that uses ultraviolet light to sterilize personal protective equipment in the early days of the pandemic. It was quickly deployed by local hospitals. Now the team has turned its attention to the use of UV light to disinfect large, enclosed spaces and to determining the amount of UV light necessary for sterilization and the amount that's safe for human health.
