#4.1 - Ben Jones: Delving into Indoor Air Quality, Contaminants, and Health - Part 1
Manage episode 384834651 series 3523693
Ben Jones - Associate Professor at the University of Nottingham in the Department of Architecture and Built Environment.
With a Master's Degree in Aeronautical Engineering, he worked as a Senior Software Engineer at BAE Systems before completing an Engineering Doctorate in Environmental Technologies at Brunel.
He was a Research Associate at University College London for two years before taking the post in Nottingham in 2013.
Ben's work focuses on measurement and modelling approaches to the indoor environment. He is particularly interested in the energy-efficient ventilation of buildings and its relationship with indoor air quality and occupant health.
Now and then, a piece of work comes along that has the attention of the room. And the work that Ben and his colleagues have been responsible for on Harm is right up there.
It's about the Harm that pollutants may cause and ways we can better define it and ultimately what we consider good or bad indoor air quality.
We talked about much more, including relative risk, cooking pollutants and what he is working on right now.
As always with Ben it was a genuinely fascinating conversation. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening.
