I’m proud to have our latest research published on how long #SARSCoV2 remains infectious while airborne! We studied the fundamental processes that drive the loss of viral infectivity in the aerosol phase. #COVIDisAirborne
Here’s a thread going over some of the findings.

People breathe 20,000 times a day. Meaning, a person samples about 11,000 litres of air every single day.
Clean air = Better health, lower healthcare costs, less sick days, higher quality of life…

Any chance I could get this amazing artwork on a t-shirt? Could help spread the word in style.

Attended the amazing @MicrobioSoc conference on bioaerosol this week! 3 days of outstanding science
Unfortunately, many early career researchers and PhD students from the USA weren’t able to attend the meeting out of concerns about getting back into the USA
What are we doing?

On a more positive note, @aerosolbob crushed it. His work on how far-UVC inactivates airborne microbes inspired some interesting discussions (funded by @Blueprintbio).
Looking forward to getting this work published ASAP.

This was a headscratcher. How do you...
Highlight an issue that isn't well understood
Draw attention to the clean air campaign
Represent this positively
Have a message that makes people curious
In the context of a street art festival?

And @Newsweek, ground level ozone is just ozone. “Smog” is a mixture of smoke and fog. The name gives it away. While they can be related, they are different things.
Do better.

Based on the decisions made over the past couple of years, air quality alerts are going to become increasingly common.

The AirNow website that the EPA has setup can help you see how good the air quality is in your area. Hopefully they will keep this tool publicly available.

Just spent all week at an intensive workshop at the @lorentzcenter discussing viral transmission via exhaled aerosol. Virologists, physicists, engineers and aerosol scientists were discussing how to answer the hardest questions.
Not once did anyone suggest using AI for anything

@CleanAir4KidsUK is changing the face of Bristol!
Well done Ruth! Looking forward to seeing the finished piece 😎

From daydream to reality: a mural on air quality at UPFEST - Europe's largest live street art festival in Bristol.
I was excited to try getting out of the information silos & communicate directly with people who aren't going to hear or engage with "ventilation".. 🧵

Thank you for the reply - it wasn't long at all.
I took the liberty of replying in line.
Thank you.
