I 💙 working with the wonderful folks at Berkeley Air to advance programs that help households benefit from health-protective building electrification policies!
Thank you to Jess Tryner at Access Sensor Technologies for giving a cool and engaging presentation at the American Association of Aerosol Research earlier this week! We are so excited to continue collaborating together on our new projects in indoor air pollution research.

Are you a grad student in #FortCollins (like I once was)? Do you have trouble finding housing? You can take this survey to let the city and county know about it.
Make your voice heard for housing needs in Larimer County!

So many things that air quality researchers think about when buying home decor and small appliances that might not be widely known…
Carpet/rugs: Nope!
Vacuum: Should have a HEPA filter on the exhaust (and use a bag, in my opinion).
Humidifier: Evaporative, not ultrasonic!

I advocate for no carpet in your home. See @lisawoodshapiro.bsky.social's www.wired.com/story/your-a.... It covers health effects, resuspension and toxic chemicals in carpets. PFAS is used to make things water repellent or stain resistant. Also see this paper www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I’m really excited to see the first paper published from this study on personal exposures to PM among urban and rural Central Valley residents! Thanks to my colleagues in CSU and our Fresno-based colleagues for making this project an amazing success so far. More to come! #airquality #airpollution
Published today! Hundreds of 24h personal & indoor PM2.5 & PM10 measurements collected at 2 LPM with UPAS compared to samples collected with PMIs + Apex2 pumps: Spearman correlation > 0.8, normalized mean difference < 16%. All samples collected in California’s Central Valley.
