Working with many collaborators within and outside Georgia Tech, our research group focuses on improving health and healthcare by conducting design research and by creating policy. We concentrate on two questions: 1) How the design of buildings, sites and campuses can increase everyday physical activity; 2) How the evidence-based and innovative design of healthcare facilities can improve quality, safety and efficiency for patients, families, staff and organizations.
