Ph.D. student Elizabeth Gillispie is investigating arsenic in groundwater, a problem for people around the globe.

Soil science Ph.D. student Elizabeth Gillispie says the mix of experiences she’s gained at NC State – high and low tech; research, outreach and policy; and field and laboratory work – is the kind of diversity she hopes for in a career. Her current research seeks answers to the problem of arsenic contamination in groundwater, which can cause serious human health problems.
