    The Third International SPARTAN Meeting was held on April 19, 2018 at UMBC Physics Building to explore collaborations around the SPARTAN network. The agenda included sessions on the historical context of PM2.5 health effects, updates on SPARTAN activities like maximizing information from filters, and interpreting composition measurements with models. Presentations also discussed opportunities for public health applications with Vital Strategies, characterization of organic carbon, and connections to other networks like AERONET, MPLNET, and aircraft campaigns. The meeting concluded with discussions of collaborative tools on OpenAQ, near-real-time aerosol forecasting, new satellite aerosol products, mobile monitoring in Brazil, and future directions for SPART
