Underground and Windowless Spaces: A Neuroscience Approach

Sep 23, 2016

This research examines how (i) working in windowless environments (WLE) / underground spaces (UGS) influences (positively or negatively) human psychology, cognition, performance and well-being, (ii) critical aspects of human health are affected by such environments (such as circadian rhythms, including core body temperature), and (iii) general attitudes and lay beliefs towards working in UGS.
