About
Our interdisciplinary research addresses a wide range of topics from fundamental research through to translational patient-centred research and innovation. Examples include:
- sensors and biosensors
- control system design and rehabilitation technologies
- lab-on-a-chip and microfluidics
- biomedical signal processing and machine learning
- wearable technology for healthcare
- digital behavioural interventions
- autonomous disease management
- AI and health
- data trusts for healthcare
- consent and privacy management
Facilities
Researchers can make use of our dedicated multi-function biocontainment lab, the Centre for Hybrid Biodevices.
Our dedicated engineers and technicians respond to both research and industrial needs within our Nanofabrication cleanrooms.
