A Neuroscientist and Engineer, my expertise developing wearable technology and smart textiles for gait-related motor impairment is recognised by 13 prizes, 2 research medals, 11 grants, 2 fellowships globally. I currently teach and conduct research at the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering, UNSW Sydney, and founded Walking Tall Health.
My research interests include:
• Developing new treatments for motor impairment
• Neurophysiology of unstable gait
• Biomechanical analysis of human movement
• Prevention of falls
• 3D printed orthoses
• Developing wearable technology for chronic diseases
• Telemedicine and eHealth
• Surfing and backcountry skiing
I am excited about collaborating with and engaging patients, students, researchers, industry partners and key stakeholders who share a common vision “to transform healthcare through technological innovation”.
