Biography

Dr. Stephanie Taylor received her MD from Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts, she practiced pediatric oncology at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and did research in cellular growth mechanisms. Alarmed by the high number of patients acquiring infections during their in-patient treatment, she became determined to better understand the role of the built environment in patient outcomes.


Research Interest

She subsequently obtained her Master’s in Architecture at Norwich University in Northfield, VT, and now works in the US and internationally as a consultant for the design and operation of hospitals and other commercial buildings. Dr. Taylor uses medical records and other data on the physiology of building occupants to determine which building characteristics truly support human health. She has published in Nature, Science and other peer reviewed journals, is a Distinguished Lecturer for ASHRAE, and a regular contributor to Engineered Systems magazine.
