| Description | At this early stage of research delivery, some significant new research partners have been established. In particular involvement with Policy Connect's All-Party Parliamentary Design and Innovation Group affording the opportunity to contribute to the national discussions on the role of design to NetZero strategy. |
| Exploitation Route | It is anticipated that the direct beneficiary will be the Cardiac Assessment Unit (CAU) at the Western Health & Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland and their patients. The process of applying design thinking to clinical services is helping to declutter and plan services, as a skillset within the Trust. The applied design outcomes hope to provide tools to help manage service improvements. Potential for secondary outcomes, not originally anticipated in the research award application, relate to policy influence as a contributor to APDIG. These specifically relate to design's role for NetZero gain in the healthcare sector. |

| Results and Impact | This symposium debates the similarities and differences between scholarship, research and practice-based research within the creative arts. Examples of interdisciplinary case studies submitted by members of the Research Alliance were presented. Professor Magee's contribution involved a case study and panel member discussion. The talk was entitled "The Patient Game" and discussed a collaborative research journey between design, cardiology and computer science, developing 3D anatomical visualisation software, for pre-operative decision making. It included a brief introduction to the current DEP award. |
