Smith group's brake study profiled

A new paper from AirUCI's Smith research group is the first published from the work of our "Beyond the Tailpipe" team on emissions from brakes and tires.  Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and covered in an article on The Brake Report, the team’s findings underscore the complexity of vehicle-related air pollution, extending beyond tailpipe emissions to include brake wear particles. AirUCI grad student Adam Thomas and postdoc Paulus Bauer are the leading researchers on the study, which is generating a lot of media attention.  Read the article       Read the UCI News
