معرفی
Dr. Toby Carter is a Research Associate in Indoor Air Chemistry at the University of York's Department of Environment & Geography. His work focuses on computational modeling (e.g., LungCHEM-Py and INCHEM-Py) to study indoor pollutants and their links to asthma exacerbation. He is affiliated with the Wellcome Trust-funded LungCHEM-Py project and the Sloan-funded Modelling Consortium for Chemistry of Indoor Environments (MOCCIE).
Education:
- PhD Environmental Science (2021–2024), University of York
- MChem (Hons) Chemistry with Industrial Experience (2016–2020), University of Hull
- Industry Experience: Eurofins UK Ltd (2018–2019)
Research Interests: Toby’s research spans indoor air chemistry, computational modeling, and interdisciplinary environmental science. He investigates pollutant interactions (e.g., ozone, hydrogen peroxide), indoor-outdoor pollution dynamics, and the impact of cooking/cleaning emissions on health and urban environments. His models aim to predict asthma triggers and improve air quality management.
Publications: His work explores model development, pollutant behavior, and the interplay between indoor and outdoor environments. Recent studies highlight cooking/cleaning as pollution sources and the role of surface chemistry in indoor pollutant transformations.
Funding & Collaboration:
- Wellcome Trust (LungCHEM-Py project)
- Alfred P. Sloan Foundation (PhD funding and MOCCIE consortium)
Labs/Teams: Active member of the MOCCIE consortium, collaborating with interdisciplinary teams on indoor environmental chemistry.
