Air pollution must be recognised as a public health issue.

Our report 'A breath of fresh air' highlights evidence on the increased range of health impacts linked to air pollution.

The government needs to treat #airpollution as a serious & preventable health risk.

Our interdisciplinary paper on improving ventilation in the hospitality sector is now online! We found that a lack of guidance + conflicting priorities were key barriers to ventilation, and examine the effectiveness/acceptability of a motivational + guidance intervention. doi.org/10.1016/j.in...

Really pleased that our meta-analysis on prejudice confrontation (with @lilitou.bsky.social) has now been published in Psychological Bulletin. We find that confronting prejudice is an effective bias reduction technique (but there is more research to be done!): doi.org/10.1037/bul0...

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more
