Dr. rer. nat., Sports Scientist and (Health) Design Researcher

With my multidisciplinary background in sports science and game/design research, I strongly believe in the power of interdisciplinary teams and participatory formats when it comes to designing innovative health tools that provide added value for their diverse user groups. This is exactly what we are aiming for with this consortium. With an ethical, medical, psychological, and clinical grounded human-centered design approach, we put users (patients, healthcare professionals, doctors, family members, etc.) with their specific, varying needs and preferences at the center of the design process, while ensuring applicability and the transfer of disciplinary requirements into the design of digital tools to facilitate a supportive and empowering experience for all stakeholders involved.
