about the project
Our home
The research is being conducted at the European Centre for Environment and Human Health.
Part of the University of Exeter Medical School and based at the Penryn campus in Cornwall, the Centre leads world-class research into the links between natural environments and health.
Its research focuses on capturing the positive and negative impacts the natural environment can have on wellbeing, and also involves understanding how environmental challenges, such as climate change, might impact health.
