Adele Tong
PhD Student
I am a PhD student investigating the intersection of individualised health technology and collaborative design, with a specific focus on the unique wearable needs of people with epilepsy. My research leverages a background in product design to bridge the gap between functional requirements and user agency, spanning the 3D printing of custom electrodes and the development of tailored customisation interfaces. I am particularly interested in how we can lower the barriers to bespoke hardware by developing tools that facilitate seamless collaboration on CAD designs.
