Amaya Castro is a leading environmental health researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of indoor air quality and household practices. Her most cited study, "Impact of vacuum cleaning on indoor air quality" (2020, 49 citations), provides critical insights into how routine cleaning activities can inadvertently redistribute particulate matter and allergens, challenging conventional assumptions about domestic hygiene. Castro’s research has significant implications for public health, particularly for vulnerable populations such as asthmatics and children, by identifying optimal cleaning techniques that minimize respiratory risks. Her contributions have been recognized through invitations to speak at international indoor environment conferences and collaborations with public health agencies. By bridging the gap between everyday behaviors and environmental science, Castro’s work empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their living spaces, making her a vital voice in the growing field of residential exposure assessment.
