The IES Houston Section invites you to our
 March Luncheon Meeting

IES Advocacy for Light and Human Health

 Fred Oberkircher 

  FIESNA, Educational IALD,IDA, LC

Significant efforts on the part of the IES have culminated in the publication of TM-18-08 "Light and Human Health: Impact on Visual, Circadian, and Neurobehavioral Responses." 

Additionally, the Society is investigating the potential impact of the third photoreceptor on Mesopic light conditions. Finally, new research has circadian implications for the relationship between people and windows in certain architectural environments. These efforts signal a dynamic shift in the way light should be considered with impacts extending to economic and energy issues as well.
