Contact with and physical activity in nature and green spaces have been associated with beneficial effects on health. However, evidence to explain the underlying mechanisms that cause these effects is scarce. To further investigate responsible biological mechanisms, within this project we research how nature and green space exposure influence cardiovascular responses that are related to stress in children between the ages of 9 and 11 years, as part of the ENVIRONAGE birth cohort. For this purpose, participating children carry newly developed biosensors over a prolonged period of time in their daily life.
Stay tuned to our research.
