Amelia Hassoun’s current focus is on smart home technologies. This project builds upon her Master’s research at UCL on life cycles of software systems that process patient data in the NHS, as well as research (with UCL’s Why We Post project) on communication technologies in hospice care while an undergraduate at Yale. Before re-entering the wild world of academia, she worked as a patient website developer in London.
