Description
Bio:
David Borkenhagen is a Post Doctoral Fellow at the Mathison Centre for Mental Health where he researches community-based interventions for mental health. He completed his PhD in Psychology at the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Dr. Colin Ellard and holds a Bachelors in Neuroscience from McGill University. He uses the methods of behavioural science and research psychology to generate meaningful insights for designers about the effects of urban and architectural design on human health and wellbeing. Examples include developing a data-driven methodology to measure liveability in inner-city communities, conducting user evaluations of aging-in-place laneway housing, and conducting mock-up evaluations of a universal operating room design for the Vancouver General Hospital. In addition to his research work, David also writes theory articles that combine recent insights from philosophy, cognitive science, and neuroscience with contemporary discourses in architecture to better account for the profound effects space has on thought. His writing has appeared in Aeon, Psyche, and the blog of the Journal of the History of Ideas.
