After a briefing about different design methods, 3 teams will be given real life design problems and asked to apply the methods to develop solutions. The teams of approximately 6 people, will be composed of healthcare professionals, engineers, designers and end users.
The workshop will run over 2 days with the aim of prototyping solutions towards the end of the second day and lead onto potential collaborative grant submissions by the team members to develop the solutions further.
