Hay-fever can be a year round problem. Delighted to talk about what ireland does and what it needs to do to address it.

At the @EPAAirQuality national Air event. Looking forward to see the interesting talks and indeed to give my own on the topic of pollen and fungal spores. An air quality problem now and even more so in the future. #pollen #fungalspores #asthma @10Things_ToKnow @SFI

With @JerryClancy10 and his presentation on traditional and real-time monitoring of bioaerosols, we complete our #EAC2023 week in Málaga. An immense effort from Emma, Moisés, and Jerry representing the team, and it was so great meeting up with colleagues, old and new! – at Malaga, Spain

Glad to share the information of our work about grass dispersion across in Ireland.
Day two of our #EAC2023 trip and it's @moises_samco turn to present. His poster outlined our attempts to model the concentrations of grass pollen across the island!

High pollen and thunderstorms 🤧⛈️ Sounds a lot like the pollen and weather forecasts for a lot of Ireland this week. If you have seasonal allergies or asthma this could be a very dangerous combination!!!

We are delighted that our PhD students @JerryClancy10 and @Emma__Markey have won the EPA Researchers Photograph of the Year! Their image, taken atop the @MetEireann HQ on the day of our sampler installation, shows a pollen catkin releasing pollen, with the city as a backdrop. – at Dublin City, Ireland
