In this episode recorded at the 2022 SHEA spring meeting, Martin Kiernan discussed measuring the effectiveness of cleaning with Dr Phil Carling from Boston. We also discuss how data used from environmental monitoring can be used to promote improvements in practice.

Some of Phil's key papers in this area are here:
