Fantastic #AAAR2022 plenary talk by @IAQinGWN sharing his ❤️ for dirty filters to tell a story about pollutants in the air. Filtration can be part of the solution to address indoor air quality disparities but pick a good filter, make sure air goes through and replace it regularly

Such a treat to moderate the first plenary of #AAAR2022 by public health engineer @Smogdr! Fantastic talk on low-cost particle sensors from their history, how they work, when they can fail, and applications to exposure monitoring.
