Project Background

This project focuses on identifying opportunities to optimise the design of existing customised medical devices and investigating new avenues to improve clinical outcomes. The project will achieve this by investigating the feasibility of novel materials, design alterations and innovative manufacturing and processing technologies along with understanding the clinical problem through modelling, experimentation and discussions with clinicians.
