Dr Lia Chatzidiakou

Assistant Research Professor

Postdoctoral research Associate in the group of Professor Rod Jones at the Centre for Atmospheric Science (2014-now). LC has an extensive background in indoor air quality measurements in schools, personal exposure in cardio-pulmonary cohorts and outreach activities including a report for the Mayor of London. LC has led the air quality monitoring and the interpretation of the measurements in a number of national and international epidemiological projects (i.e. COPE, AIRLESS). She was responsible for the development of portable miniaturised sensing platforms making her work cutting-edge in the fields of air quality measurements, activity profiling and quantification of health impacts. She has about 30 peer reviewed publications, book chapters and national scientific assessments.
