Urban Analytics and Mental Health Researcher

The Population Mental Health Risk Prediction project is a collaborative research initiative that aims to investigate the impact of urban design on mental well-being.

By 2050, approximately 70% of the global population will live in urban environments, making it essential to understand how the built environment affects health outcomes. The emerging concept of neurourbanism focuses on the interdisciplinary study of how urban design influences psychology and mental health.

This project bridges the research gap between different facets of the built environment and both positive and negative aspects of mental well-being by embarking on a comprehensive investigation into the impact of urban factors on mental health in Singapore.

Lead PI: Evelyn Loo
