Published in Scientific Reports, the report finds that women are more likely than men to experience discomfort from overcooling, in which air conditioning systems cool down rooms more than is necessary. It concludes that there is a need to rethink the approach to air-conditioning office buildings, to both address this inequity and the energy expense from wasteful cooling.

Covid-Web Detects Traces of Omicron Variant in Wastewater Sites across California

 

Covid-WEB, an arm of Professor Kara Nelson's research lab, has been helping to track the spread of the COVID-19 disease in waste facilities across California, including sites in the Bay Area. Covid-WEB monitors wastewater for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which can indicate the presence of the COVID-19 disease in a community. This early detection can help communities respond to the virus or new variants before an outbreak.
