• A review of the status of European research activity on the indoor environment,a based on an analysis of information contained in IERIE, the Inventory of European Research on the Indoor Environment' has shown interesting patterns in current research - and also some rather alarming gaps. IERIE is a freely accessible online database, launched in February 2001, that at the time of writing contains information on 425 researchers and 199 research projects in Europe, either ongoing or recently completed. Information entered in the database is obtained from questionnaires sent directly to researchers and covers all relevant areas of study, including indoor air environment monitoring, ventilation, exposure assessment, building characteristics, health effects, epidemiology and toxicology. Full individual project details are accessible, including information on publications arising from the projects, as well as information on the researchers involved, their contact details, interests and sources of funding.
