Galway Bay FM 28 February 2021 print Galway Bay FM Newsroom – Ireland’s residential retrofitting programme should ensure ventilation is carefully considered to avoid an increase in levels of radon gas in homes, researchers at NUI Galway have found. A team from the University’s School of Physics conducted one of the first studies of its kind to quantify the impact of improved energy-efficiency and airtightness on radon – a radioactive, odourless, colourless and tasteless gas. With the Government having set a target of 500,000 homes to be retrofitted by 2030, the physicists used advanced computer models to predict how radon levels would be affected by improvements within different types of dwellings. ....
New collaborative project to study the complex roles of lipids in health, disease A University of Minnesota-Mayo Clinic partnership has joined with the Zooniverse citizen scientist platform and the Francis Crick Institute in London to leverage world-leading expertise in microscope imaging with the power of citizen science to study the relationship between structure and function in biology to better understand health and disease. The Minnesota Microscopy Infrastructure Partnership, led by the Mayo Clinic, the University of Minnesota, and the University s Hormel Institute, serves the high-end optical and electron microscope needs of more than 400 research laboratories in Minnesota and surrounding states. The collaboration is supported by the State of Minnesota. ....
