Four new projects have been funded by the Breathing City network. Researchers have received a share of £20,000 to better understand how indoor air quality affects occupant health, how air quality metrics should be communicated and displayed, and how the new building standards affect indoor air quality. The four projects are:
- ‘Real-time residential monitoring of children with suspected pollution related respiratory diseases’. PI Dr. Jonny Higham. University of Liverpool
- ‘Ventilation, indoor air quality and people health in care homes’. PI Dr. Hong Yang. University of Reading
- ‘Not every air quality measurement should be treated the same: standardising visuals’. PI Dr. Marco-Felipe King. University of Leeds
- ‘Impact of different building standards on indoor air quality in homes’. PI Dr. Monica Mateo-Garcia. Birmingham City University
We will report on the projects as they progress over the next year
