Polin Waterpark’s director of marketing and communications, Şöhret Pakiş, recently participated in Prof. Dr. Sinan Canan’s ‘’AçıkBeyin Documentaries’’ series. Sohret has been leading research on the connection between waterslides and applied neuroscience, developing what is understood to be the first quantitative study in the field of neurorecreation.
The study was carried out to provide feedback to those involved in the fields of waterslides, entertainment, recreation — from attraction designers to recreational park investors and local government — as well as to guide future designs in this field. Her work evaluates the waterslide experience in terms of biometric and neural parameters and can be viewed on the AçıkBeyin Youtube channel with English subtitles.
