🌬 Clean Air, Clear Returns: The Economic Imperative of Indoor Air Quality for Europe and Beyond
Indoor air pollution places a major economic burden on Europe — from healthcare costs to productivity losses — but it also presents significant commercial opportunities in growing IAQ markets.
Join KHEALTHinAir and EDIAQI (members of the IDEAL Cluster) for an expert-led session exploring the cost of inaction and the economic value of IAQ innovation.
🗓 12 December
🕙 10:30 – 12:00 CET
🗓 Friday, 14 November
🕥 10:30 CET
This session explores how families, teachers, and schools can work together to reduce indoor air pollution and protect children from asthma triggers — drawing on the latest science and real-world findings from the INQUIRE and EDIAQI projects.

We are back from the summer hiatus 🌞 — and ready to embark on the next chapter of the EDIAQI Webinar Series with the latest instalment of the Mini-Medical Series, co-convened by the INQUIRE and EDIAQI EU projects, both proud members of the IDEAL Cluster.
Join us for:
💨 “Breathing Room: Empowering Families and Schools to Safeguard Children from Indoor Asthma Triggers”
👉 Check out the thesis here: https://ediaqi.eu/articles/homo-sapiens-vs-neanderthals-what-one-gene-may-reveal-about-our-past
The article examines the evolutionary role of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AHR), which helps organisms detect and process foreign compounds. A key genetic difference between modern humans and Neanderthals is a mutation at position 381 of the AHR protein (valine in humans vs. alanine in
Very proud to announce that Lana Žoldoš, through support from the EDIAQI project, has completed her master’s thesis on how humans adapted to pollutants throughout evolution.
Her work focuses on the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) — a key gene in detoxification — and how a single genetic difference may have given Homo sapiens resilience to toxins compared to Neanderthals.
This research connects evolutionary biology with today’s challenges of air quality, including indoors.
