EPUAP Trustee
In the past 8 years, I have developed a national and international reputation within the research field surrounding the prevention of pressure ulcers, through the translation of sensing technologies and intelligent algorithms. During my PhD (2016-2020), I demonstrated the long-term use of pressure monitoring systems to inform posture and mobility in lying and sitting. I have identified temporal pressure parameters within the pressure data both sensitive and specific to postural movements.
I am currently the named post-doctoral research fellow and work package lead of the project ‘Intelligent Sensing to Promote Self-management of Posture and Mobility in Community dwelling Individuals (SEAMLESS)’ (2022-2025). I lead all the technical development and bench to bedside testing for a new community co-designed pressure sensing technology. This addresses the unmet need of providing assistive technologies for promotion of self-management of posture, mobility, and PU risk in the community.
