Grant Program:
2020_MRFF_EPCDR_Silicosis Research
Grant Activity:
The role of particle size in the pathogenesis of engineered stone-associated accelerated silicosis
Purpose:
The emergence of engineered stone associated silicosis in Australia is an occupational health disaster. We do not understand why this form of silicosis develops, is so severe or why it develops after only a few years of exposure to engineered stone dusts. This project aims to identify the types of engineered stones that are most hazardous to lung health and why the dusts generated cause such severe disease.
