About the Event
CRIPA is proud to sponsor the Special Symposium Bioaerosols in agriculture: sources, risks and mitigation at the American Association for Aerosol Research Annual Conference, October 21-26, 2024, at the Albuquerque Convention Center, NM, US.
Two experts from CRIPA, Caroline Duchaine (Laval University) and Stéphane Godbout (Institute for Research and Development in Agroenvironment) will be the chairs of conference.
This symposium aims to disseminate current data and knowledge regarding sources of bioaerosols in agriculture, including the livestock industry (e.g. swine, poultry, cattle, dairy), harvesting and activities emerging areas such as insect production.
The primary objective is to improve our understanding of the human and animal risks associated with these bioaerosols. The symposium will cover a range of topics including air sampling, emissions calculations, mitigation technologies and risk assessment of viruses, bacteria, dust and other biological components. Presentations will share ideas on these topics and may also explore emerging technologies and approaches to mitigate and control bioaerosols.
Symposium presentations will serve as a bridge between various scientific disciplines, including measurement, engineering, microbiology and aerosol sciences. Scientists from diverse backgrounds and perspectives will come together to stimulate discussions and foster collaborative research. The organizers anticipate the inclusion of a plenary panel for conclusive discussions during the event. To find out more, click here.
