Design innovation for wellbeing: project examples using smart materials for the body and built environment
Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution
Expertise in design, science, technology, engineering, mathematics and business (D-STEM-B) are combined successfully in transdisciplinary Design Thinking groups to produce innovations to societal problems with wellbeing at the core. Three research proposals currently in progress are presented here: 1. Barrier Solutions- melanoma prevention; 2. DERMA-ageing well; 3. SHAKES-earthquake early warning systems. By their transdisciplinary nature the projects are expected to produce new types of research using mixed methods for textiles and biomedical applications in the design, science and innovation arena.
