New funding for Erin Dooley and Prothesis Project

Congratulations to Dani Kalarikalayil Raju, an #HCI specialist at Studio Hasi in Mumbai, and Digital Health's Dr Erin Dooley, who have successfully applied for funding from the new Swansea University Morgan Advanced Studies Institute (MASI) for their project: 

3D printing and rapid prototyping to provide wider access to prosthesis especially in resource-constrained communities in India. 
 

Erin and Dani met at CHERISH-DE Centre & EPSRC's #DigitalEconomy Crucible 2021 conference, forming the idea to investigate how Erin and Dilawar Singh’s [@LINK] 3D printing and rapid prototyping system could be applied to help those from lower socio-economic backgrounds access prosthetics whilst also upskilling the participants in STEM engagement through co-design.
