HAQAST Launch21

Join us for the first meeting of the newly launched HAQAST2021-2025 team!

The public portion of the meeting will be held on March 3, 12:00 – 3:00PM EST, and we warmly invite stakeholders large and small, both in the US and abroad.

Come learn about the work of our 14 PIs, make connections, and get ready for the upcoming Tiger Teams. What’s a Tiger Team? It’s a short term (1 year or less) project in which our PIs focus their amassed expertise in close collaboration on an air quality and public health issue that you, our stakeholders, identify. (For an idea of what projects our Tiger Teams have focused on in the past, visit this page.)
