Do you live within the City of Toronto?
Do you have a protected outdoor space?

Researchers from the Transportation and Air Quality group (TRAQ) at the University of Toronto Transportation Research Institute (UTTRI) are looking for locations to set up air-monitoring pumps throughout Toronto. This study aims to test the hypothesis that outdoor air pollutants are potential environmental risk factors for neurological disorders including dementia.
