Christopher Bull is a Lecturer in Digital Health and Software Engineering with 11 years’ experience building and evaluating secure health informatics platforms that span from smart apartments to city-scale deployments. Based at Newcastle University’s Open Lab, he blends HCI, IoT and mobile sensing to identify digital endpoints and biomarkers—currently leading a work package on fatigue detection for the IDEA-FAST project. His PhD translated studio-based, project-led pedagogy into software engineering education, seeding Lancaster’s software engineering studio and championing cross-discipline collaboration and reflective practice. Christopher combines hands-on platform engineering and co-design with ethic-focused mixed-methods research, aiming to make assistive and diagnostic technologies practical for healthy ageing, mental health and clinical workflows. An indicator of his applied focus: he has repeatedly led multi-scale deployments and worked on real-world projects that collect everyday computer-use data to detect cognitive change.
