Our surroundings affect our bodies: light pollution, traffic, and aircraft noise all significantly affect cardiovascular health. This project will investigate interactions between brain systems that subconsciously scan our surroundings for interesting or threatening features, and those that co-ordinate the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. We will generate new knowledge that describes how the brain detects danger and translates this into signals that contribute to cardiovascular risk.

我们周围的环境影响我们的身体：光污染、交通和飞机噪音都会显著影响心血管健康。这个项目将研究大脑系统之间的相互作用，这些系统下意识地扫描我们周围的有趣或威胁的特征，以及那些协调心血管和呼吸系统的系统。我们将产生新的知识，描述大脑如何检测危险，并将其转化为有助于心血管风险的信号。
