Projects

Springfield, Chicopee, and Holyoke in the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts have a long history of high asthma rates.  

Fresh Air clips were used to explore levels of airborne chemicals in cities globally. Explore findings with the interactive dashboard below. 

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a group of chemicals of concern from a human and environmental health standpoint; also called forever chemicals these chemicals have long half lives both in the body and environment and have been linked to various cancers, obesity, metabolic disorders, and other health issues. 

Polymers and chemicals that form series are essential in every day products including plastics, emulsifiers, lubricants, and detergents.

We developed the Fresh Air Clip as a personal environmental device that can provide early warning of viral transmission risk that is specific to the wearer and further offer information on practices or environments with a high risk of exposure.
