What are we measuring, what is our process and does it create what we perceive to be 'good'? Value is itself a measurement – the measure of 'goodness'.
My current work is in three areas: finding the balance between personalisation, privacy and the value for data digital business (DROPS project), delivering individualised gene therapy cancer treatment at scale (OMMS project), and developing transdisciplinary thinking and working (TREND project).
