Working together with collaborators in infectious disease and surgery at Oregon Health & Science University, a Biology and the Built Environment Center team investigated hospital windows and associated components (glass, frame, curtains) to see if any of these components act as reservoirs for hospital-associated pathogens.

Read about the study and findings in the article published today in PeerJ, “Viable bacterial communities on hospital window components in patient rooms.”
