The Physics of Bio Aerosols

Mastering Fluid Dynamics and Atmospheric Dispersion of Airborne Particles

The air around us is alive with invisible forces that dictate the fate of every microscopic particle.

Strategic Objectives

• Master the principles of fluid dynamics specific to biological particles.

• Predict how varying climates and weather patterns affect aerosol stability.

• Understand the mechanics of dispersion and deposition in diverse environments.

• Bridge the gap between atmospheric physics and environmental safety.

The Core Challenge

Most researchers focus on the biology of agents while ignoring the complex physical laws that govern their survival and travel through the atmosphere.
