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.
