Gavriel Kleinwaks discusses her recent work on improving indoor air quality to reduce pathogen transmission. Listeners will learn about interventions such as HVAC, filtration, and UVC sterilisation, and how engineers can contribute to the field.

Ryan, Executive Vice President of Research and a Partner at Gryphon Scientific, discusses how engineers and technologists contribute to effective and evidence-based government policy. He shares his journey from studying computational engineering science to life-science research and the policy implications of life-science research.

Vivian discusses the use of far-UVC technology to reduce the transmission of pathogens in indoor environments. The conversation covers the current state of the technology, safety considerations, and pathways to reducing its cost. Engineers interested in promoting the widespread adoption of far-UVC technology will find valuable insights in this episode.
