Interview Focus for #WorldStandardsDay
Academics and experts, like Dr. Flaithrí Neff (@Flaithri Neff) of the Technological University of the Shannon (@TUS_ie), are showing the value of academia to the development of standards.
“There is a lot we can contribute to improve people’s lives,” according to Flaithrí.
Flaithrí successfully applied for the Research Ireland (@Researchirel) Public Service Fellowship Programme, after the National Disability Authority (@NDAIreland) issued a call for research.
Donal Fitzpatrick of the NDA feels that it is essential that more stakeholders, particularly persons with disabilities, are included in the standards-development process.
He said: “Persons with disabilities represent a significant demographic group within the broader population and frequently have accessibility-related needs which must be catered for. In order to capture these needs, it is crucial that the voice of persons with disabilities is heard, and that their lived-experience is included.”

Full house here at #AICONNECT in Shannon with @FMCampusIreland @AMAXTechnology and @NVIDIAEU – at Clare, Ireland
Another wonderful event at FMCI in Shannon Ireland today for #AICONNECT. Patrick Duffy & myself with our trusty Neumann KU100 binaural microphone to talk about our acoustic research in Intelligent Transport Systems. @FMCampusIreland @TUS_ie @AMAXTechnology

Great to have @FlaithriNeff& Patrick Duffy from #TUS using the Future Mobility Ireland proving ground for acoustic testing. This pilot project aims to monitor&record the variability of acoustic signals from different vehicle motor types as well as those from vulnerable road users

Fantastic talk by Prof Aaron Lanterman @abovenyquist at our AES Ireland @IrlAes online event. Highly recommend people jump to his excellent YouTube lectures on analog circuits in music too. Thanks to Joe Timoney for organising and to Aaron for giving us his time this evening.

Please give serious consideration to installing the @HSELive #CovidTrackerApp. This is a very well-designed and privacy-sensitive app. @UCC @insight_centre @Confirm_Centre @UL
Right now I can confirm that we have now reached 1M registered users of the #CovidTrackerApp. The app wont make you immune to the virus but it can help to reduce the risk. Lets keep it going. Please sign up and encourage your network to do so also. @HSELive #COVID19

As I follow the mounting evidence, I wanted to share my current thinking on why/how SARS-CoV-2 is spreading. It is critical that we understand why/how so we can stop the spread. Note - it is not that different from our Science Perspective published on May 27 (1/)

I am one of the scientists who wrote the letter described in NYT. Many of the negative comments on this thread relate to a misconception of what "airborne" is, which is shared by the WHO experts. See below the FAQs of my model on the topic.

Those widely-viewed @acsnano papers on mask filtration had some issues. See correction at pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…, for example. We are working on this, too, but good research takes time. /2

Evaluation of decontamination methods for commercial and alternative r... sciencedirect.com/science/ar… Careful work by one of the best labs for aerosol filtration. Don't use isopropyl on your N95s, UV is good, moist heat better than dry for virus inactivation but degrades mask. /1

A simple spreadsheet estimation tool for COVID airborne-only transmission indoors.
Based on airborne infection models, e.g. medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/… and refs therein
- A few examples: university, bus etc
- Can download into Excel and adapt for your case
