Pictured here with President Dennis Chinner is Taylor Sheahan (Carol Shaw’s daughter) at today’s Rotary meeting.
Taylor is with the U of L IGem team. IGem is an acronym for International Genetically Engineered Machine. Taylor’s presentation was about a project with the City Emergency Services in an effort to test for pathogens in ambulances. The net effect should result in a safer environment for vulnerable people being transported to hospitals.
