Mer om författaren

Dr. Bing Chen from Department of Urban Planning and Design, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU), is an architectural researcher and designer. His research interests are focused on sustainable planning/design strategies, Evidence-Based Design for healthcare environment, building environmental assessment methods, post occupancy evaluation and whole life cycle analysis and so on. He has participated in and contributed to several cross-disciplinary research projects in the UK such as Carbon Reduction in Buildings (CaRB) funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Carbon Trust, and Nurturing an Evidence-Based Learning Environment which supports the Innovative Design of Healthcare Facilities or similar (Acronym EBLE) funded by EPSRC. (http://www.xjtlu.edu.cn/en/faculty/academic-subject-staff/item/58-chen-bing.html) Dr. Michael Phiri from School of Architecture, University of Sheffield, has directed and coordinated many cross-disciplinary research projects. His work on evidence-based design addresses critical and topical issues while the design tools (AEDET, ASPECT and IDEAs) which he co-authored are now routinely used in hospital building programmes across the UK and, increasingly, internationally.
