Anybody moved to 787 due to contaminated cabin air?

Hi fellow flying colleagues,

I do increasingly hear of fume events in my present outfit (B737-800) as well as pilots and cabin crew complaining about typical symptoms consistant with toxic air. Recently I was grounded due to a fume event for several weeks and wanna change something immediately.

My question is if anybody from you or known friends/colleagues moved to the 787 from any other conventional stinker-plane using bleed air and feel a good effect?
I came across 787-pilots who suddenly feel much more rested and well being despite of having longhaul ops with time zones and night flying. Is it a coincidence?

Would be great to discuss and share your experience as I think about a career change. The 787 is a last option to stay in business should it really be an improvement.

Thanks!
