IAQ Scientific Findings Resource Bank
An IAQ Scientific Findings Resource Bank is being developed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with funding support from EPA provided through an interagency agreement. It is a resource for public health professionals, building professionals, and others who seek scientific information about the effects of IAQ on people’s health or work performance. The IAQ Scientific Findings Resource Bank provides information summarizing the state of scientific knowledge about the relationships between people’s health and productivity and the IAQ conditions or associated building characteristics in which the people work or reside. This web site also provides links for downloading published journal articles that were developed under the project.
