<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The seminar is divided into two parts, where the first part consists of a pure overview of the field and is held on a generally accessible level (10 min). The second part will be more technical (15-20 minutes).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Air pollution is a major environmental risk for health, with about 99% of the world’s population breathing polluted air, causing 6.8 million early deaths each year (World Health Organization, 2022). In this research project
we have looked at how tiny (nano scale) particles from braking trains affect human cells. We created these particles and exposed human cells to them and using an advanced mass spectrometry imaging method, we could see how these particles interact with cell
structures. Our new method shows that we could use this approach to study how pollution affects cells, helping future research on how these particles might be toxic. This presentation will highlight the need to understand how pollutants interact with us humans
to find ways to better reduce air pollution's health risks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
