SUMMARY:Occupant-Centric Simulation-Aided Building Design--Methods to obtain the occupant perspective
DESCRIPTION:International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) is a non-profit international society of building performance simulation researchers\, developers and practitioners\, dedicated to improving the built environment. Their new seminar series\, Occupant-Centric Simulation-Aided Building Design\, promotes occupants as a focal point for the design process. A multi-disciplinary\, globally recognized team of scholars and practitioners responsible for an important new textbook will discuss theoretical and practical approaches to placing occupants and their needs at the heart of the design process. \n\n\n\nIn this webinar Clinton Andrews\, Bloustein School Professor and Associate Dean for Research will critically examine methods for learning about the occupant’s perspective regarding the design of buildings. He will discuss the nature of occupant data; the strengths and weaknesses of self-report\, observational\, and simulation methods; and the need to represent occupants prudently during the design process.\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is required at https://bit.ly/IBPSA_webinars_candrews\n\nSee the complete webinar series flyer.

SUMMARY:Changes in Healthcare Visits Due to Cannabis Use Following Legalization of Non-medical Cannabis in Canada
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, March 27\, at 12 pm ET for a presentation of the NJ ACTS Special Populations Core 2024 Seminar Series – Changes in Healthcare Visits Due to Cannabis Use Following Legalization of Non-medical Cannabis in Canada with Daniel Myran\, MD\, MPH\, CCFP\, FRCPC. \nAn increasing number of countries and US states have legalized or are considering the legalization of cannabis for non-medical use. A major concern is that legalization could increase cannabis use and associated harms. This presentation will review studies tracking changes in healthcare visits due to cannabis in children and adults following non-medical cannabis legalization in Canada. \nDr. Daniel Myran is a clinician-scientist and assistant professor with the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Ottawa. He is an associate scientist at ICES\, where his research program focuses on using natural experiments combined with linked health administrative data to better understand the impacts of public policy on mental health and substance use healthcare visits and outcomes. He practices family medicine with an interest in addiction medicine. \nRegister for the event: https://go.rutgers.edu/jveb79ao

SUMMARY:15-Minute Neighborhoods
DESCRIPTION:15 Minute Neighborhoods: A Pathway to Creating Healthier\, More Just\, Resilient & Sustainable Communities in New Jersey \nThe 15-minute neighborhood concept gained visibility as the global pandemic demonstrated that local access to basic life needs is critically important. In addition to being an important contribution to New Jersey’s efforts to achieve its goals of reducing pollution that causes climate change\, 15-minute neighborhoods provide residents with easy access to parks\, schools\, gathering places\, social services\, places to buy healthy fresh food\, and\, in some cases\, public transit\, within a comfortable walk or bike ride. \nNear-term\, multi-billion-dollar investments in infrastructure\, a revolution in transportation technologies not seen in a century\, the recalibration of relationships between people and places brought about by the pandemic\, and converging policies related to energy\, health\, climate\, transportation\, and environmental justice provide New Jersey with an unprecedented opportunity to rethink and adjust how we design and build communities. \nJoin Jon Carnegie\, Executive Director of the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University\, for a summary of a two-year study designed to investigate how a comprehensive\, multi-goal planning and policy framework can be used to achieve carbon-neutral transportation choices that simultaneously support healthy\, just\, and resilient communities for all New Jersey residents. \nPRESENTATION\nJon Carnegie\, Executive Director\, Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center\, Rutgers University \nMODERATOR\nJeanne Herb\, Executive Director\, Environmental Analysis and Communications Group\, Rutgers University Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy \nRESPONSE PANEL\nAlex Ambrose\, Policy Analyst\, New Jersey Policy Perspective\nZoe Baldwin\, Vice President\, Regional Plan Association\nElizabeth Semple\, Director of Adaptation\, The Nature Conservancy NJ \nRegister Here
