Research summary

In the environmental ergonomics laboratory, we study the effects of various environmental factors, such as (sound, light, temperature) on human physiological functions.
In the modern society, it is very important to investigate human characteristics by measuring human physiological and psychological responses to various environments. Further, it is critical to evaluate how individuals adapt to rapid environmental changes and the corresponding variations in physiological responses among individuals. The current research work, aims to create a more comfortable and healthier environment for humans.
