Description of Research: My research explores early engineering design activities, particularly in medical device development. Part of my work includes investigating how design practitioners use prototypes in early phases of design (fuzzy front-end). My interests include front-end design, design decision-making, creativity, risk, and medical devices.
Keywords: fuzzy front-end, design decisions, creativity, risk, medical devices
