The evolution of neuroscience for architecture: introducing the special issue

We outline a framework for research on neuroscience which will benefit architecture, and topics in neuroscience which will be stimulated by innovations in the design of the built environment. We then use this framework of collaboration and influence to situate the research articles of this Special Issue supported by the Academy of Neuroscience for Architecture (ANFA). The articles expand upon presentations at ANFA's International Conference, held at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California in September of 2012.
