What's exciting about RADICAL? with Dr Stig Hellebust, UCC
We join RADICAL atmospheric chemist Dr Stig Hellebust from University College Cork (UCC), to find out what he finds most exciting about RADICAL.
Stig Hellebust is a lecturer in physical chemistry and an atmospheric chemist in the Centre for Research into Atmospheric Chemistry (CRAC) at UCC.
RADICAL is a Horizon 2020 FET-Open project to develop a brand-new way of detecting atmospheric radicals in real-time. This will be a small, low-cost electronic sensor that will ‘sniff’ out short-lived radicals.
This could be a step-change in how scientists monitor and model the role of radicals in air quality and climate change.
RADICAL is led by UCC and includes five other partners across Ireland, Germany, Greece, Bulgaria, and the UK.
The RADICAL project has received funding from the European Union (EU)'s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 899282.
