 In March 2020, at the start of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the UK's supply chain for medical grade PPE collapsed under unprecedented demand and a workforce that could be sent into quarantine at a moment's notice. As a result frontline clinical staff in some of the UK's busiest hospitals were left to care for patients without adequate protective equipment. To respond to this, a coalition of experts in medicine and surgery, medical devices, product design and digital manufacturing was formed between Queen Mary University of London and the Royal London Dental Hospital to design safe, effective and reusable PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that could be manufactured quickly to meet the urgent demands of London's hospitals and medical and dental surgeries.

 I spent 2019 working with a team of animal psychologists to study the effects of multi-modal stimulation on infant chicks (0-5 days old). This has involved designing and building relatively compact robots to vibrate and play sounds when pecked by a chick. It is hoped that the results from this study will inform ongoing effors to automate chicken farming using robotic and electronic devices, as well as ever fascinating strides toward creating realistic, helpful, robotic pets.

 My early research focussed on the field of Information Visualisation, and in particular, Rapid Serial Visual Presentation. This project, conducted alongside my undergraduate studies, investigated how certain perspective cues affects user performance in a simple image search task. better understand the competing effects of psychologically prefering 3D environments, but also the negative effects of the speficic visual cues that create this effect, such as non-linear scaling over time and motion blurring.

 Towards the end of my PhD, I was able to visit York University in Canada to conduct a study investigating the usefulness of haptic feedback when presenting environmental information from a teleoperated underwater robot. This consisted of an experiment in which my interactive soft haptic touchpad was connected to a Blue Robotics BlueROV2. The touchpad was used to control speed and direction whilst the robot passed through a cross-current to reach and inspect a floating target.

 Medicine is an inherently hands-on field of study, with students needing to learn important dexterous clinical skills used in physical examination and surgery. Whilst students are often given opportunities to practice these during placements and residencies, these opportunities are inherently ad-hoc and there is never any guarantee that a medical student will encounter a full range of examinations and conditions during their time in hospital. Student experience in some supernumary specialisms such as dermatology is particularly inconsistent. This project aims to combine haptics and extended reality to create realistic, instructive simulations of the physical examinations taught in the undergraduate medical curriculum to allow students to learn and practice these skills in a consistent and low-risk environment before being asked to perform them on a patient.
