BioBE researchers spend quite a bit of time writing grant proposals.  In particular, over the last few months I (Sue Ishaq) have been co-writing proposals which expand our understanding of indoor lighting on human health and behavior, the indoor microbiome, and energy usage in buildings.  These project proposals are collaborative efforts between BioBE, Energy Studies and Buildings Laboratory, and the Baker Lighting Lab.  We’ll have more updates in the next few months as those are reviewed.

Siobhan “Shevy” Rockcastle, Chair of the Baker Lighting Lab, and I have been brainstorming ideas, and today I went over to the Baker Lab to check it out in person.  The Lab is decorated with concept-design lighting projects from previous students, which are not only beautiful, but extremely creative.  Here are a few of my favorites!
