Continuing our profile series of postdocs in @RCSI_PopHealth, Dr Muluken Basa @BafaMuler is a postdoctoral researcher on the @mapimpactie project, which is tackling the health impacts of air pollution in Dublin & Cork. We asked Mulukan to tell us a little more about his research.

Air pollution isn’t just affecting lungs, it’s changing DNA.
A new global study found that air pollution causes the same mutations in non-smokers that are usually linked to smoking, especially in key genes like TP53.

🌍 Shocking but true: Only 7 countries in the world meet the WHO’s air quality standards. and Dublin is not one of them. That means billions, including us, are breathing unsafe air every day. Clean air isn’t a luxury—it’s a basic human right. 🫁💨

Air Pollution and Asthma: A 45% Surge in GP Visits
A new report shows that GP consultations for asthma attacks in England rose by 45% in early 2025. Health experts are linking this alarming spike directly to air pollution levels, particularly in urban and deprived areas.
