Abstract The biomarker detection in human body fluids is crucial as biomarkers are important diagnosing diseases. Conventional invasive techniques for associated with infection, tissue damage, and discomfort. Non‐invasive devices an attractive alternative. Here, metal oxide (oxygen‐deficient zinc oxide, ZnO) based conductometric sensors two‐terminal electrodes rapid of real‐time, presented. This platform can be engineered non‐invasive, sensitive, on‐demand selective on surface...

This paper grapples with complicities of decolonising as we attempt to unsettle Dominant conventions in Design, which ossify through repetition, such reoccurring conferences. Such are troubled questions around labour, privilege and ethics being present situated when come together share our practices on unceded Indigenous lands. The is co-authored by hosts a conference that leveraged the organising mechanisms surface implicit agendas, interrogate normalised approaches confront tensions...

This research reports on a sequenced co-design process to engage lived experience consumers, carers, healthcare professionals, sector advocates and government representatives in co-designing spatial experiential inputs residential eating disorders facility. The stakeholder community was enabled model of care and, building this, shape the functional brief for design health spaces. input provided architects designers with more expansive understanding user needs regarding specific architectural...

This article investigates the use of iterative prototyping to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration in design and development an innovative self-fit modular hearing aid. The process for aid generated over 200 models, each which was additive manufactured plastic, polymer, plaster or metal. team developed a system understanding contribution prototypes by situating these as variously propositional, material, mechanical, experiential behavioural. Throughout operated boundary objects at...

We analyse the mechanisms at play within a successful trans-disciplinary health and wellbeing project seek to highlight key strengths expert teams that facilitate innovative outcomes. These competencies are identified through development of necklace for longer-term cardiac monitoring created in team encompassing designers, craftspeople, electronic engineers, practitioners.

The potential of design artefacts as generative tools is well documented in the early stages process. Yet, how prototypes continue to act generatively later less understood. This paper shares observations from two projects spanning entire process, conceptual ideas mass-produced objects. Through quotes and documenting participants interacting with prototypes, we illustrate importance designed physical promote expansive conversations end-users. We find that foster empathy; support...
