      I have invented two protocols: one that assesses blood pressure (the force exerted by the blood on your arteries), and another one that measure the volume of blood ejected by the heart. Both of these methods are very useful because doctors can use them without having to insert a wire in the patient’s body. They are cheaper and less risky.

      I have made lots of discoveries … little bits of the big jigsaw picture… each time I have to invent ways to test the idea.

      I have been involved with research work during my degree which looked at curing blindness this work is still on going so even though I did not personally cure it discoveries we had will help to hopefully one day find a cure. In my current job there are many research teams working on various things to try and advance the blood science area. We help in our lab by providing various things required and also maybe carrying out some tests or trial a new possible procedure.

      I haven’t made any inventions. I’m very happy that other scientists do, as we use a lot of their inventions in my work!
