Congratulations to third-year SOI student Caroline Miracle and Associate Professor Lindsey Fay on their University of Kentucky Undergraduate Summer Research and Creativity Fellowship for summer of 2018.

Miracle will work alongside Fay to conduct a pre- and post-occupancy evaluation within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital as it moves from an open bay system to single-family patient rooms. The single-family room system was implemented with the goals of increasing privacy for families, offering better control over environmental stimuli, and reducing infections.
