Dr Mikael Boulic PhD, MEnvBusMgt, PGDipEnv, MBio, BSc
Senior Lecturer
Doctoral Supervisor School of Built EnvironmentMy area of expertise is focused on the interface of the Building Technology and Public Health. I have led a few intervention studies where we have investigated the relationship between domestic heaters, ventilation and the level of pollutants (mould, bacteria, chemicals and moisture) in homes and in classrooms. These studies had a strong sympathy for vulnerable communities with low income, Māori
and Pasifika communities being particularly at risk through a higher burden of disease.
