Dr. Wall told me she created SOGES at CSU so that faculty had a refuge where scholarly conversation and collaboration could flourish, unhindered by academic barriers. She succeeded in that vision, in a space where many before her did not. Thank you, Diana.

Most evaluations of low-cost #aerosol sensors have focused on their measurement bias compared to regulatory monitors. Few evaluations have applied fundamental principles of aerosol science to increase our understanding of how such sensors work and could be improved... READ MORE🔎

Boom. This new annual PM2.5 limit (9 ug/m3) chosen by EPA represents great progress towards cleaner, healthier air for everyone. In Colorado, you can expect visibility to improve along the Front Range as a result. stocks.apple.com/AKFmRuyA7Tr2fW…

Teardown-> model of the #PMS5003 PM sensor shows
1. It’s a PM counter, not a nephelometer.
2. It can count 0.3-0.5 um particles and that’s about it.
3. It CANNOT report PM size distributions, PM coarse, PM10

NEW COMMENTARY: Health Research in the Wake of Disasters: Challenges and Opportunities for Sensor Science ➡️ ow.ly/8U6Q50P1FfL CSU Mechanical Engineering NIEHS John Volckens

Worried about all that smoke outside? Wearing a well-fitting N95 outdoors will make a big difference. @projectn95

Buildings breathe. If it's smoky outside, you should be taking precautions to protect your health indoors as well as out. I walked through every possible home configuration I could think of with John Volckens (window a/c? central a/c?) to find out what to do. heatmap.news/wildfire-smoke…

If you’re worried about #wildfire #smoke inhalation, go grab that #N95 mask you set aside on May 11. It will help…a lot.

Good morning #Colorado ! Feeling run down? Itchy eyes? Sore throat? Headache? It’s probably not your allergies. We have a massive #wildfire #PM2 .5 #smoke intrusion from Canada. Stay indoors and run those air cleaners! Real-time info here: fire.airnow.gov

Imagine how your lungs would feel if your kitchen stove was an open fire burning indoors... Campfires are for camping, not everyday cooking. Thanks to Nate Seltenrich Environmental Health Perspectives for spreading the word on this global health and climate issue. ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/EH…

Seeing 'The Mask Mandates Did Nothing' trending is an illustration of how opinion editors at mainstream outlets spread disinformation about science and cause mass harm.

#ColumbiaSHARP registration has opened for our NYC #ExposureModeling Boot Camp for August 3-4 ! ColumbiaPublicHealth and McGill University team up to teach
