On my way to chair a session CIBSE technical symposium. Be good to see some familiar faces in the flesh rather than on a computer screen 😁 x.com/CIBSE/status/1…

At the CIBSE technical symposium, and it's nice to see that London South Bank University - LSBU have provided information about the ventilation provision in the lecture theatre, and some advice on ensuring occupants don't inadvertently block vents

We've written up Inkling thoughts on last weeks CIBSE Technical Symposium for our blog here. Themes included climate emergency, embodied carbon, the end of gas, refrigerant leakage, SAP11, air quality and the Building Safety Bill. inklingllp.com/2022/04/25/tec…

CIBSE Natural ventilation group AGM today, our first in person meeting since Jan 2019 when we met at the LEVN in Leeds. This will be my last as Chair and am looking forward to handing over the reins 😁

It was great to see @CathNoakes receive her CIBSE honorary fellowship from the proposal by the Natural Ventilation special interest group. A well deserved honour for a lifetime of important research in the field of ventilation and infectious disease transmission.

A nice write up
