Learning from pandemic experiences
Baobeid and teammates built on earlier research to investigate what makes an area walkable.
The health-related, behavioral, and cognitive implications of having and using sit-stand desks have been carefully and thoroughly investigated by neuroscientists.
Researchers have linked living in greener neighborhoods to better cardiovascular health.
Licina and Langer compare indoor air quality and satisfaction in different contexts.
How should homes be lit to increase the likelihood of healthy users?
How does light experienced during the day influence sleep?
Most new (and new-ish) offices are activity-based workplaces (ABWs), sometimes known as activity-based flexible offices (A-FOs). Neuroscientists have comprehensively studied how best to “ABW.”
