Richard Corsi of the University of Texas at Austin discusses a study he is conducting as part of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Healthy Schools: Environmental Factors, Children's Health and Performance, and Sustainable Building Practices initiative. His goal is to address research gaps in indoor air quality by conducting an intensive field campaign to delineate the relationship between environmental factors and student and teacher health and perceptions, and then to investigate the efficacy of low-cost solutions to help schools become healthier.
