Grant Description

Improve our knowledge of the effects residential green construction has on both indoor environmental quality and occupant health, with a particular focus on children and other sensitive populations. The goals are to improve our knowledge of the benefits of residential green building methods on 1) indoor environmental quality, and 2) occupant health. It is expected that benefits would be most likely observed for respiratory health outcomes and reductions in irritation-related symptoms.
