This facility enables researchers to explore questions like: <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: revert\">Where are we most creative?<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert\"> VR environments such as cafes, offices, nature, and labs were used to assess the influence of physical spaces on creativity and cognitive flexibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Knowledge Transfer and Future Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-119 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.napier.ac.uk\/enu-mindcrea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/120\/2024\/11\/awayday5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"413\" height=\"273\" \/>The Awayday also featured discussions on knowledge transfer, particularly in fields like forensic psychology, sensory analysis, and creativity training. The <strong>Creativity Matters!<\/strong> project and innovative approaches to sensory analysis, such as the development of novel methods for profiling whisky flavours, underscored CEDAR&#8217;s commitment to bridging research with real-world applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Short Talks and Research Presentations<br \/><\/strong>Several researchers took the stage to present their findings across various topics:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Living and Working in the Built Environment<\/strong>: PhD candidate Natalie Bain-Reguis, Dr Suha Jaradat, and PhD candidate Iyad Sawaftah shared insights into how the design of our environments impacts everyday life and creativity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-120 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.napier.ac.uk\/enu-mindcrea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/120\/2024\/11\/awayday6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"596\" height=\"221\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-121 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.napier.ac.uk\/enu-mindcrea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/120\/2024\/11\/awayday7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"303\" height=\"197\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-122 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.napier.ac.uk\/enu-mindcrea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/120\/2024\/11\/awayday8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"222\" height=\"226\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Wellbeing in Forensic Environments<\/strong>: Dr Adam Mahoney and PhD candidate Niall Buchanan delved into forensic psychology, focusing on the relationship between environmental conditions and mental health in forensic settings.
