Mr Fin J Schofield

Current PhD Student at the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) for Digital Health and Care at the University of Bristol.

In June 2022, I completed my BSc Neuroscience course at the University of Bristol. The course was a research-driven deep dive into key healthcare conditions across neuroscience and physiology, ranging from neurodegenerative disorders to chronic conditions such as cystic fibrosis.

Since then, I have undertaken a PhD position at the CDT to further research how technological solutions may play a role in treating and empowering people to take control of their healthcare.

My research project centres around the development of Assistive Technologies for the treatment of sleep problems in adult ADHD. Using a mixture of qualitative co-design and quantitative analysis, the project aims to place neurodiverse perspectives centre-stage in the development of effective sleep management approaches.
