EPISODE400 - Jeff May-Common & Under Recognized Sources Indoor Bio-aerosols

Join us this week on IAQradio when we welcome Jeff May to discuss two presentations he gave at the Indoor Air Quality Associations 19th Annual Meeting; Mold in the Mechanical Leading Cause of Sick-building Symptoms and Under Recognized Sources of Indoor Bio-Aerosols. Some of the bio-aerosols he will discuss are obscure and others are surprising. We will also do a short preview of the EPA sponsored Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Science, Engineering and Medicine conference on The Health Risks of Indoor Exposure to Particulate Matter. The conference is next week in DC and Radio Joe will be covering it for IAQ Radio. Jeff May is Principal Scientist of May Indoor Air Investigations, LLC in Tyngsborough, MA. Author of four books on IAQ (published by The Johns Hopkins University Press), including My House is Killing Me and The Mold Survival Guide, Jeff has been investigating building problems in homes, schools and office for over 25 years, and has examined by microscopy over 35,000 air and dust samples. A nationally recognized speaker on IAQ topics, Jeff is a member of IAQA, the Pan American Aerobiology Association, American Chemical Society, and the New England Chapter of the American Industrial Hygiene Association, among others. He is a Certified Indoor Air Quality Professional (CIAQP, Association of Energy Engineers), and is a licensed Mold Assessor in the state of Florida. He holds a B.A. from Columbia College (chemistry) and an M.A. from Harvard University (organic chemistry), and has served as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Work Environment at the University of Massachusetts Lowell.
