Fundamentals of Bioaerosols Science: From Physical to Biological Dimensions of Airborne Biological Particles covers both the physical and biological aspects of bioaerosol science. It is assumed that researchers with a physics background are often unfamiliar with the biological aspects (e.g., molecular biology, PCR, and DNA sequencing), and researchers with a biology background are often unfamiliar with the physical aspects (e.g., aerosol physics, air sampling, and aerodynamic diameter) of bioaerosol science. This book aims to bridge the interdisciplinary gap between the fields of bioaerosol science. Fundamentals of Bioaerosols Science include topics such as bioaerosol physical properties, sampling and monitoring methods, analytical methods, control techniques, and relationship to climate. - Presents an in-depth explanation of the fundamentals of bioaerosols science - Includes an introduction to the latest knowledge and technologies related to bioaerosol science - Features interdisciplinary contents that are useful even for those without specialized knowledge

Dr. Naomichi Yamamoto is a Professor in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at Seoul National University (SNU). His current research interests are in the areas of i) aerobiology, ii) environmental microbiome, and iii) One Health. His research team uses genomics approaches to analyze environmental DNA (eDNA) to investigate the ecological roles of organisms, including airborne organisms, in the environment and their impacts on human health. Before joining to SNU faculty in 2012, Dr. Yamamoto worked at Yale School of Engineering as a postdoctoral fellow supported by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). He received his B.Eng. degree in applied physics from Waseda University, M.S. degree in environmental health sciences from UCLA, and Ph.D. degree in environmental studies from the University of Tokyo.
