COVID-19: Story from a Classical Aerosol Science Perspective
In the second seminar of the SARS-CoV-2 Seminar Series, Dr. Suresh Dhaniyala will present on how classic aerosol science can be applied to the transmission of COVID-19 in the air. Dr. Dhaniyala is the Bayard D. Clarkson Distinguished Professor of Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering and the Co-Director of the Center for Air Resources Engineering and Sciences. His research interests include developing techniques for accurate characterization of airborne particle properties.
Aerosol science involves understanding the generation, transformation, and fate of airborne particles. Even when these particles are biological in nature, classical aerosol science can help with understanding how to determine their lifetime and dispersion in air and how to protect ourselves from harmful ones. In this talk, Dr. Dhaniyala will look at how aerosol science can inform us about PPE, social distancing, and flattening the curve.
