Did you know that we are starting sampling in 4 countries? We are monitoring the air quality in places where primary school children spend their time. This will help us understand what children are exposed to in their daily life. Stay tuned for more news!
The InChildHealth project will integrate health, environmental, technical and social sciences research to identify determinants for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and evaluate their impact in environments occupied by school children. Real-life indoor air quality (IAQ) data will be collected across Europe. User-friendly and low-cost monitoring technologies and strategies (technical and behavioural) to improve IAQ and reduce disease burdens will be …
Stephan Dasen is a project manager and communication systems engineer, together with a team of highly skilled engineers and technicians, provides wearable sensors allowing to monitor the health status as well as the activity of asthmatic children. Working in CSEM, he is responsible for the wearable sensors under the InChildHealth Project.
Over 40 members of the InChildHealth consortium convened in Lisbon, Portugal for the hybrid consortium meeting held in Lisbon, Portugal. During the week a lot of brainstorming and discussion went into adding the final touches to the sampling strategy for the Tier0 and Tier1 sampling campaigns, and reviewing the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for sampling. This meeting was hosted at …
Did you know that H&TRC – Health and Technology Research Center has a massive expertise in microbiologic agents exposure, mainly in indoor air environmental, as well as, occupational environments? These four researchers – Carla Viegas, Marina Almeida-Silva, Edna Ribeiro and Liliana Aranha Caetano – will collaborate in several WP from the InChildHealth Project and also in IDEAL Cluster.
