The Interdisciplinary Forum Neurourbanism e.V. is part of the Research Platform Neurourbanism, a project funded by the Berlin University Alliance with the topic “Exploring and Designing Urban Density.”
As a working group of university professors, scientists and practitioners from the fields of psychiatry, urban planning, psychology, neuroscience, architecture, sociology, philosophy and ethnography, our aim is to shape cities that are worth living in and beneficial to the mental health of their inhabitants.
Together we seek to better understand the influence of urban living on emotions, behaviour and mental health and make it measurable. Research and working methods from all the disciplines involved are applied, with a focus on basic and experimental research, public and specialist events as well as policy advice.
