Research Interests
My research is in biomedical engineering with expertise in biomedical signal processing, biomedical image processing, and non-invasive sensor systems. Applications of my research include assistive and rehabilitation devices, para-sport, and the intersection of technology, disability, and history. I also serve as Director for the NSERC CREATE Research and Education in Accessibility, Design, and Innovation (READi) training program.
Accessibility
Engineering is service profession that applies engineering and scientific principles and knowledge for the betterment of society, and, as a biomedical engineer, my work has always involved highly interdisciplinary teams. I believe the pursuit of an accessible and inclusive society is important and meaningful, and such work can positively impact many members of my communities, including family, friends, and colleagues. I also have a strong commitment as an educator, and believe education an important factor in accessibility.
