@greenpartyemma.bsky.social ...only I'm trying to persuade CamCitCo to commission a paper on neuroarchitecture & recent findings for our emerging local plan evidence base! 😁(eg Neurodiverse people are more sensitive to designs that generate mental stress. Like this application on Station Rd corner)

Great to see the stands, less sure about the buildings! The recent research in the emerging field of neuroarchitecture is striking. It shows many contemporary building designs increase levels of mental stress in our brains. humanise.org/opinions/his... < Worth asking #Localgov to host an event on it

I wonder if Anglia Ruskin could reassess their proposed grey box that will house their new creative quarter given the new research on neuroarchitecture cambridgetownowl.com/2024/01/02/a...
Anglia Ruskin’s proposed creative quarter is full of grey. Why?
Why have the architects chosen a grey colour scheme to replace the cladding on what already is an ugly building? TL/DR? See the Planning Portal here and type in the reference: 23/03907/FUL and feel…

The science is catching up to what trans people have always known. Gender isn't costume or confusion, it's neuroarchitecture, embodied identity.
The brain doesn't lie; it builds itself around truth. The tragedy is that prejudice still thinks it knows biology better than biology does.

Using our Enobio (www.neuroelectrics.com/products/res...), CNN-LSTM models trained on ERP features (N100–LPP) predicted spatial preferences.

fMRI/BOLD is bad proxy for neuronal signals but has given clues for a while. That together with anatomical neuroarchitecture had suggested to me something like that (also training in distributed computational circuits). Not claiming further insight than anyone but some people would have predicted it
