Mr Adam Handley
School of Health & Society
Current positions
Research Fellow Respiratory Biomechanics
Biography
Adam Handley is a Research Fellow in Respiratory Biomechanics in the School of Health & Society at the Â׸£ÀûƬ, where his work bridges computational modelling, motion analysis, and clinical research to improve outcomes for people living with difficult-to-treat asthma and breathing pattern disorders.
His expertise spans real-time physiological data capture, biofeedback system development, and the management of clinical trials. His work translates advanced sensing technologies, including 3D motion capture, diaphragm ultrasound, and electromyography, into practical tools for clinical assessment and patient rehabilitation.
Areas of Research
Adam's research sits at the intersection of physiology, biomechanics, and digital health technology. He is interested in how advanced sensing and computational methods can be applied to better understand and improve breathing mechanics in clinical populations, with a particular focus on asthma and breathing pattern disorders.
Other interests include: gait, balance and motor control and development
