HealthByDesign

Thank you Laura Appel for such an amazing lecture yesterday on #health, #publichealth, #healthcare and why the #builtenvironment matters. Particularly appreciate your note about teaching students to advocate for #design to #government officials and #policy makers. We appreciate your advocacy for #HealthBYDesign Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning, University of Michigan Upali Nanda, PhD, Kristina Marchand, Laya Joseph, Andrew M.

Thank you Catie Newell for spending time with the class to discuss the link between #light and #health. We cant talk about HealthByDesign within the confines of a classroom. Thanks for taking the class into #nature! Look forward to taking on #campushealth this semester.

Our 2024 #HealthByDesign cohort is off to a flying start with guest lecturer Kristi Jenkins. We are getting ready to take on #campushealth in keeping with #UMichVision2034 We are asking the question #whatcandesigndo to improve #health and link #design to #outcomes on our very own campus. #HealthByDesign #Mhealthy Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning, University of Michigan

Resurfacing this article as we dig into how the #homes and #environments we #design can actively improve #activity and #nourishment that can help with disease prevention and management. It starts with understanding clinical needs, social determinants of health, and the user experience. And helping make the healthy choice the easy choice at the #pointofdecision #designcontinuum.

We're thrilled to share the outstanding work of our Winter 2024 students, who have diligently explored the status of primary care across various global regions. https://lnkd.in/gquig_3d #GlobalHealth #PrimaryCare #StudentResearch #HealthcareInnovation #PublicHealth

Thrilled to announce the launch of this semester's Health by Design Compendium! Have a look at the projects by our cohort. Huge thanks to Jenny Yu, MD FACS and RVO Health for their collaboration throughout the course of the semester.

We are excited to showcase the culmination of our students' efforts this semester! In collaboration with RVO Health, four student teams have explored and crafted innovative interventions for the design of primary healthcare spaces beyond traditional clinic walls. Tasked with challenging their assumptions, they were encouraged to investigate innovative ways care can be delivered across the #DesignContinuum in both digital and physical realms. Each team used their design skills to identify opportunities and propose solutions that are research-driven, people-centered, and rooted in a systems view of health. #StudentProjects #HealthByDesign #PrimaryCare #CareByDesign | Upali Nanda | Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning, University of Michigan Visit #HealthByDesign to learn more about each project: https://lnkd.in/dDv3Bgxi Upali Nanda Jenny Yu, MD FACS Joy Knoblauch Jonathan Rule Matias del Campo Camilla Moretti Betsy Williams, AIA LEED AP Tamie Glass Nikola Gjurchinoski Rutali Joshi, PhD, EDAC, LSSYB Meredith Banasiak Von Robinson Prakriti Vasudeva Natalie DeLiso

Access to safe water and sanitation is not just about preventing diseases such as diarrhoea, cholera, typhoid, polio, or dysentery; it's about upholding human rights. Water 💧 is essential for life, and peace 🕊️ is achieved when everyone has access to clean water resources. Learn more 👉bit.ly/4cviXEn #WorldWaterDay

As we close another enriching semester, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this journey not only possible but truly remarkable. This term, we explored four pivotal topics that pushed the boundaries of health and design. Each theme challenged us and enriched our understanding, thanks to the diverse perspectives brought by our distinguished jury and guides. A big thank you to our jury: Betsy Williams, AIA LEED AP, Camilla Moretti, Nikola Gjurchinoski, and Rutali Joshi, PhD, EDAC, LSSYB, designers and researchers from HKS, who brought invaluable industry insights. Jonathan Rule, Joy Knoblauch, and Matias del Campo, our esteemed professors from Taubman College, for their rigorous academic guidance. Natalie DeLiso and Prakriti Vasudeva, our course alums, whose experiences and reflections added layers to our discussions. Jenny Yu, MD FACS from RVO Health, who served as our clinical guide and offered crucial healthcare perspectives. And, of course, Upali Nanda, the visionary behind this course, whose leadership and expertise continue to inspire us all. Your feedback has been immensely motivational, encouraging us to dive deeper and refine our research further. Stay tuned as we unveil more about the four topics we tackled and the insights we gained. The journey of discovery continues!

Great work from #healthbydesign frequent guest Andrew M. Ibrahim MD, MSc and class alum Natalie DeLiso. There is no #health without #healthyhousing
