In Dagenham East, UCL CEGE hosts two unique research environments: the Person‑Environment‑Activity Research Laboratory (PEARL) and the Clean Active Ventilation Environments (CAVE) laboratory, focused on innovative ventilation systems. PEARL investigates how people interact with their surroundings, while CAVE is a large environmental chamber that allows investigation of simultaneous multiple ventilation environments to study how people respond to varying temperature and humidity conditions.
Both laboratories are part of the UK National Facility for Research on Infrastructure and Cities (UKCRIC) and are housed in a £50M development in east London. PEARL fuses the arts, physical, clinical, life and engineering sciences, design and instrumentation in multisensorial environments constructed at 1:1 scale.
