This Brain Talks episode on Urban Environment and Brain Health features two projects on brain health, funded by the European Union under the same main programme (H2020-EU.3.1. - SOCIETAL CHALLENGES - Health, demographic change and well-being): BRAINTEASER and eMOTIONAL Cities.
Evidence shows that environmental factors may influence both the aetiology and the progression of a number of brain conditions. Through cost-effective sensors and apps, a comprehensive analysis of clinical, lifestyle and environmental data and predictive/preventive AI models for patient stratification and disease progression, BRAINTEASER aims to better inform people living with MS and ALS and support clinical decision making in 4 urban areas: Madrid, Turin, Lisbon and Pavia.
Urban living is associated to an increase in mood and anxiety disorders, drugs addiction and risk of schizophrenia and psychosis. Through urban stress research, emotional mapping, urban prevention and therapy research, eMOTIONAL Cities aims to explore how urban planning and design could positively impact brain health in 4 cities: Lisbon, Copenhagen, London and Lansing.
