We are delighted to congratulate Mark Campbell on successfully defending his PhD thesis recently.
Mark’s PhD topic was “Cardiac rehabilitation: patient experience design – addressing challenges, opportunities, and digital interventions in the patient journey”. In his extremely interesting work, he created a the cardiac rehabilitation patient journey map, identified how risk is currently communicated to patients, identified factors that inhibit this communication, and created a new mobile app with 3D graphics for communicating cardiac interventions for patients. His work was supervised by Dr Sam Redfern here in the School of Computer Science.
Grateful thanks to the external examiner, Prof. Raymond Bond (Professor of Human Computer Systems, Ulster University), and to the internal examiner, Prof. Tony Hall (School of Education, University of Galway). Head of the School of Computer Science, Pro. Michael Madden chaired the viva.
