Full description The air passages and lungs are exposed to the external environment through the air that is breathed. It is therefore important that they can sense danger signals present in air, such as toxins or irritants, that might compromise breathing. This sensory system is poorly described. We will investigate brain circuits regulating airway irritant detection when air quality is compromised by smoke arising from bush fires. The findings will inform the severe health impacts of environmental pollutants.
