Air Hub: Engineering healthy indoor environments aims to build research capacity to understand what is in particulate matter (PM2.5) inside, what its health impacts are, and what we should do about it. Although we know that PM2. 5 is a significant contributor to ill health, we know little about the constituents (and therefore toxicology) of particulate matter in our buildings. The network will run for two years with a series of online and in-person workshops, sandpits and pilot studies.
We are absolutely thrilled to announce the successful conclusion of our intensive, two-day collaborative sandpit workshop!
The event brought together an incredible cohort of researchers, innovators, and experts to better understand particulate matter (PM) in indoor environments, what it is made of, what it does to our health, and what we should do about it.. Over 48 hours of intense co-creation, our participants turned ambitious ideas into robust, realistic funding proposals.
Day 1 was all about exploring the "what ifs." The room was buzzing with energy as we pushed the boundaries of our current thinking, discussing: low-cost sensing, sensor tech, connecting health, and much more. Day 2 shifted our focus toward action. Teams spent the day translating these massive concepts into structured, collaborative funding proposals. The event culminated in a series of fantastic presentations mapping out exciting future projects.
We are currently reviewing the proposals generated during the workshop and are incredibly excited to support these projects as they move from the drawing board into reality.
A massive thank you to all of our attendees, facilitators, and partners who brought their energy, expertise, and open minds to the table.
Keep an eye on this space and our social media channels for updates on the funded projects as they develop!
