Part -1
Stephanie Taylor received her Medical Degree from Harvard and subsequently practised pediatric oncology while researching cellular growth control mechanisms for the next several decades.
While taking care of hospitalised patients, she became increasingly convinced that the
healthcare facility played a significant role in patient healing and in healthcare-associated infections.
Determined better to understand the built environment's impact on patients, she returned to school and obtained her Master's in Architecture.
She is an ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer and is on the Standards Committee for Performance Metrics for Occupied Buildings. She is also a member of the US Green Building Council technical advisory board on Indoor Air Quality.
In 2019 she founded Building4Health to scale the powerful yet underutilised
approach of managing IAQ from a medical perspective to support occupant health.
She brings together a fascinating convergence of human health, microbiology and architecture, I first met her a few years ago in Athens where she was giving a plenary presentation on the impacts of the microbiom of buildings on human health and it was one of the presentations that has stuck with me ever since.
So it was a real privilege to get to have an extended conversation with her about her journey from medicine to buildings, the philosophy and approach of Build4Health and how these two areas of expertise can come together.
After all, we mostly build buildings for people and a human-centred approach is a perspective we sometimes lose.
