Authors
Richard Bibb Professor of Medical Applications of Design School of Design and Creative Arts, Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK.Prof Richard Bibb is a Professor of Medical Applications of Design at Loughborough University, UK. He graduated from Brunel University, UK (1995) with a BSc (Hons) in Industrial Design. He then ?undertook doctoral research in Rapid Prototyping at the National Centre for Product Design and Development Research (PDR), Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK. This study involved the development of a computerised Rapid Prototyping selection system for designers in small companies.
After gaining his PhD in 1999 he established the Medical Applications Group at PDR to conduct collaborative applied research in medical applications of design technologies such as CAD and 3D Printing. He rose to the position of Director of Research ?for PDR before moving to Loughborough University in 2008.? In 2014 he established the Digital Design & Fabrication research lab (DDF) which focuses on ?advanced computer-aided design (CAD), 3D ?Printing and Additive Manufacturing technologies.
Professor Bibb's personal research focus is the application of advanced product design and development ?technologies in medicine, surgery, rehabilitation and assistive technology.
Dominic Eggbeer Professor of Healthcare Applications of Design at PDR, Cardiff Metropolitan University, Wales, UK.Prof Dominic Eggbeer is a Professor of Healthcare Applications of Design at PDR, Cardiff Metropolitan University. His research focuses on the design and development of personalized medical devices, applying his knowledge to surgical implants, facial prosthetics, dental devices and other areas of rehabilitative medicine.
In addition to his academic research, he manages a small, ISO 13485 compliant commercial team in the design of patient specific implants and other devices. Eggbeer also has a leading role in collaboration, dissemination and in supporting broad uptake of novel design engineering approaches in healthcare.
Abby Paterson Programme Director, Design for Additive Manufacturing and Lecturer, Industrial Design and Technology School of Design and Creative Arts Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK.Dr Abby Paterson is the Programme Director, Design for Additive Manufacturing and Lecturer in Industrial Design and Technology at Loughborough University, UK. She specialises in 3D scanning, CAD, and digital, automated fabrication (CNC milling and Additive Manufacture).
Abby graduated with a BSc in Product Design and Technology and a PhD in 3D Scanning, CAD and Additive Manufacture for Medical Applications from Loughborough University. After completing her PhD, she was appointed as a lecturer at the University of Manchester in the School of Materials; she continued her research in digital design and fabrication for medical devices and then returned to the Loughborough Design School as a lecturer in 2014.
She is currently completing a 12-month industrial fellowship in 3D scanning, CAD and AM, funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering. Abby has also received funding from Arthritis Research UK to develop specialised 3D CAD software for the design of customized 3D-printed wrist splints. In 2015, Abby was awarded a Loughborough University Teaching Innovation Award. Abby also engages with consultancy work through the Loughborough University Enterprises Ltd.
Mazher Iqbal Mohammed Senior Lecturer, Digital Fabrication, School of Design and Creative Arts, Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK.Dr Mazher Iqbal Mohammed is a senior lecturer in digital fabrication, a member of the Digital Design and Fabrication Research Group within the Loughborough University Design School and an Honorary Research Fellow with Deakin University's School of Medicine.
His qualifications include a combined undergraduate Master's in physics (MPhys) from the University of Edinburgh and an Engineering Doctorate (EngD) in medical device biotechnology from the University of Strathclyde. Dr Mohammed has worked in academia for over ten years across several institutes both in the UK and Australia, including roles at Heriot Watt University, the Australian National University (ANU) and Deakin University. During this time, he has developed a highly multidisciplinary skill set working at the intersection of design, manufacturing, material sciences, chemistry and biomedical engineering.
Dr Mohammed's research interests focus on digitally driven fabrication technologies, aimed at positively impacting human development and longevity. He is particularly interested in the intersection of disruptive technologies such as additive manufacturing, design and data driven processes to develop innovative and practical solutions in fields ranging across healthcare, humanitarian technologies, closed-loop sustainable manufacturing and Industry 4.0.
