Research Focus

EPSRC Research Software Engineering Fellow 2020

A key aim of my fellowship is to establish a Research Software Engineering (RSE) presence within Queen’s, promoting RSE as a career pathway to attract and retain high level engineers within academic research. This Fellowship will support key research into software-based approaches for Internet of Things (IoT) cyber-attack mitigation.


My research will develop and test software-based security threat mitigations for IoT devices, which will provide future-ready protections against cyberattacks. It will also involve a multi-disciplinary collaboration with University College London into IoT-based tech-abuse for vulnerable sectors of society.
