Nature as a Restorative Tool to Urban Stress: Examining Stress Recovery Using fNIRS

Register

Urban living has numerous advantages, but it also correlates with an increased risk of a wide range of physical and mental illnesses, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, depression, and anxiety. Can these negative effects be remedied by a quick walk outdoors? This seminar will go through a study using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to look at how the brain recovers from stress in nature and urban environments.
