Junjie Niu, Richard and Joanne Grigg Professor and associate professor, materials science & engineering, was interviewed by WTMJ-TV news for the story “Why farmers and homeowners alike should check the weather before using fertilizer.” The interview aired March 24 on the station’s Two Americas series, which focuses on significant issues facing southeast Wisconsin and solutions.

“It was a nice experience to introduce our work to the public,” said Niu, who spoke about his research on finding ways to remove pollution from past manure spill offs.
