We join RADICAL researcher Prof. George Angelov from Smartcom, to find out what he finds most exciting about RADICAL.

George Angelov is the Scientific and Technology Lead at Smartcom and the Technical University of Sofia, in Bulgaria. He and his colleagues provide the computational modelling that helps optimise the nanowire sensors to better detect atmospheric radicals.

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.
