The Light and Health Research Center (LHRC) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is pleased to announce that BrainLit, a world leader in lighting designed to enhance human health and well-being, and Vantage Lighting, a leading manufacturer of specification-grade LED lighting products including vHealth healthcare lighting, have joined the LHRC’s Lighting Education Partnership for 2023.

“Vantage Lighting is very happy to support the LHRC’s education partnership and we appreciate their ongoing contributions to the lighting industry,” said Steve Kaufman CEO of Vantage Lighting.

The LHRC’s Lighting Education Partnership is a collaboration among businesses, organizations, and government agencies interested in promoting meaningful and effective education in lighting.

“BrainLit is pleased to join the LHRC’s education partnership and looks forward to working with them to spread the word about the important role that lighting plays in supporting human health and well-being,” said Kyle Harris, CEO of BrainLit.

Part of that mission includes providing professionals with technical information on using light more sustainably — providing the greatest benefit to the health of people and the planet.

“The support of BrainLit and Vantage Lighting as education partners will help us to expand our efforts in educating a wide range of people about the benefits that lighting can provide,” said Dan Frering, the education program manager for the LHRC. “We thank both companies for their funding and look forward to collaborating with them on future educational programming.”
