2022

• 27 April 'click-bait title' front page headline story on Montreux water quality in 20Min. Lost the whole DIT research idea, sadly, even though started from an article proposed by Maurice. But, it made a splash... & finally resulted in some response from the municipal group. The collaboration with the Jazz for monitoring this summer is happening, with the more 'green' R-Cards for E. coli and coliform counts to be used instead of the old fashioned petri dishes (see image in gallery above).
