Caption

SMU engineering professor Andrew Quicksall, flanked by graduate students Katie Grant and Drew Aleto, are surrounded by curious children as they take water samples from a hand-pumped well at Kyangwali refugee settlement in Uganda. Their research, funded by the United Nations High Commissioner on Refugees, will help solve dangerous water quality problems at UNHCR refugee camps.
