innovative Design Science
Dr. Eve A. Edelstein, EDAC, Assoc. AIA, F-AAA leads our efforts.
Eve is known internationally for her unique services that translate science into applied design.
Dr. Edelstein is the first person known to receive degrees and experience in Neuroscience (Ph.D. Institute of Neurology, University College London), Architecture (M.Arch. NewSchool of Architecture & Design) and Anthropology (B.A. University of California Berkeley).
Working with faculty at University of California San Diego and the NewSchool of Architecture & Design, she developed and taught the first program of courses on Neuroscience for Architecture and workshops for the Academy of Neuroscience for Architecture.
Dr. Edelstein collaborates with design firms and clients to apply design principles from research to design projects.
Eve also collaborates with scientists at the Division of Biological Sciences & Calit2 Virtual Reality StarCAVE at the University of California San Diego. They are developing the means to measure human physiological and behavioral responses in a fully immersive virtual reality environment where buildings and design can be tested before being built.
Edelstein’s publications include contributions as a co-author to the first EDAC study guide for the Center for Health Design.
