The Light and Health Research Center (LHRC) provides education to professionals from architecture, engineering, lighting, and other occupations to help them use lighting to enhance the well-being of people and the planet. For the first time since our recent move to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, the LHRC is running two concurrent online educational programs starting in September 2021.
