She later worked at Imperial College as a researcher conducting field campaigns/ experiments on the effects of air pollution on reproductive health for the Born-in-Bradford project, whilst carrying out research on indoor air pollution, ventilation, climate, and building factors, as part of INTARESE (Integrated Assessment of Health Risks of Environmental Stressors in Europe), an EU FP6 project, and the INTARESE/HEIMTSA Mega Case Study. Alongside her academic research career and her PhD research, she has initiated/ conducted further research on healthy and sustainable design/development and acted as a trans-Atlantic project coordinator. Construction projects covered over 20 years of diverse professional experience include Masdar Institute of Science and Technology (MIST) campus (as part of the world’s 1st zero carbon city:- with PHA Consults); Bangkok’s 1st underground system; luxury residential condominiums (29-47 floors); housing projects (up to 4,240 units per project); a 34-storey mixed-use complex; a golf course in China; and a conceptual large-scale urban regeneration project in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Sirinath was additionally the Managing Editor of the Intelligent Buildings International Journal, and a Committee Member of both the CIBSE Intelligent Buildings Group and the CIBSE Knowledge Delivery Sub-Committee. |
