# Researchers to develop new biosensor platform to detect aquaculture pathogens

The National Science Foundation has awarded a $1m grant for a three-year project called BioSPACE, led by Electrical Engineering Prof. Yan Luo and a team of researchers. The project aims to develop a data analytics platform using biosensors to detect harmful organisms, such as Vibrio and Pseudomonas, in aquaculture farms and coastal waters. BioSPACE will continuously monitor water in real-time and alert local and state agencies to take immediate preventive measures. The project addresses the economic burden caused by waterborne diseases in aquaculture, providing a low-cost, rapid, and portable monitoring and early warning system.
