Laboratory of Air Hygiene

Laboratory of Air Hygiene conducts research on the air pollution exposure. The main objectives of the laboratory are:

to assess the air pollution exposure levels and distributions of European urban populations, especially exposures to fine particles (PM2.5)
to analyse personal, social and environmental determinants of air pollution exposures
to develop a European database for simulation of air pollution exposure
to develop a probabilistic simulation technique for modeling the exposures of subpopulations and impacts of urban development alternatives on exposures
to identify the sources of and determine their contributions to fine particle mass concentrations in personal exposures and in home and workplace microenvironments.
