This week on IAQ Radio we are joined by New Jersey resident and founder of QLab, Dr. Wei Tang. Dr. Tang graduated from Cornell University with his Master and Ph.D. degrees in Soil Microbiology. He has conducted numerous research projects in Cornell University Soil Microbiology Laboratory using microorganisms for bio-remediation of environmental organic pollutants. He has also spent over 20 years at premier laboratories focused on microbiological sampling and analysis methods for indoor environmental quality assessment. He has taught professional development courses and presented frequently at national conferences on analysis of indoor microorganisms and also on various topics including investigation and remediation of microbial growth in indoor environments.

In addition to founding QLab Dr. Tang is the inventor of several advanced microbial sampling devices including AccuScience Triple Gel-Tape, Sweep-Swab and Sponge-Swab. He also developed several advanced analytical methods such as AccuScience High Performance Spore Count and AccuScience Triplicate Analysis. Dr. Tang currently serves on IAQA and IESO Board of Directors. He is also the IESO President and IAQA Trenton Chapter Director. LEARN MORE about microbiology, sampling methods, sample analysis and progress in recovery from Super Storm Sandy this week on IAQ Radio.
