My Ph.D. thesis will be on understanding the perception of air pollution among people using social media data. I also intend to develop a wearable air pollution exposure monitor and design an air pollution visualisation tool to reduce the entry barrier for air pollution research.falseair pollution perception | air pollution wearable | social media | visualisationConference Paper199-20310 September 20202cpConference Proceeding2
