  Space-based solutions to air pollution in the UK
University of Leicester Department of Physics and Astronomy
  Dr E Marais, Prof P Monks
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Air pollution is the largest global threat to health (Lancet, 2017). In the UK, about 40,000 people die prematurely each year due to exposure to air pollution (RCP, 2016) and UK health care costs due to air pollution may be as high as £160 million per year (PHE, 2018).

  NERC Panorama Doctoral Training Partnership - Long-term measurements of OH reactivity: A new metric for air quality
University of Leeds School of Chemistry
  Dr D Stone
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Poor air quality has been reported as the greatest environmental risk to public health in the UK (DEFRA, 2017), has recently been linked to dementia (Carey et al., 2018), and is estimated to cause over 40,000 premature deaths in the UK each year (Royal College of Physicians, 2016).

  Does nighttime chemistry of isoprene impact air quality in polluted environments?
University of York Department of Chemistry
  Dr J F Hamilton, Dr P Edwards
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Exposure to poor air quality is the top environmental risk factor of premature mortality globally. It is estimated that 91 % of the world’s population lives in places where air quality exceeds World Health Organisation guideline limits and that 1 in 9 deaths globally are a result of exposure to air pollution.
