Ahana Sarkar , PhD
Assistant Professor
Vidwan Profile
Interests
Her research interest lies in objective-orientated space planning to enhance human comfort and
liveability while minimizing effects of externalities. She works on deriving at design solutions
utilizing data-driven intelligence of built-environment while addressing sustainability goals. She uses
both survey and sensor-based data-driven methods to provide built-environment solutions for better
well-being and health as well as improved energy choices in low-income housing and other resource-
constrained societies. Using the concepts of socio-architectural theories, her research outputs inform
macro-to-micro level solutions that enable well-being, health, cohesiveness while curbing
environmental risks.
