Come along to this free seminar by GNS Science. We cannot see the small airborne particles that we breathe, nevertheless they can have significant impacts on our health.

Indoor air is generally more contaminated with air particulate matter than outdoor air and is therefore of special interest. The GNS Science 3 million volt accelerator is a key capability that allow us to identify sources and concentrations of air particulate matter.

Bill Trompetter (GNS Science) is an air quality scientist and will describe these studies and issues about indoor air quality and the air we breathe.
