Events & education

Speaking & presentations

I speak at conferences, industry panels and in-house events about the human factors decisions that shape medical device safety — from regulatory strategy to the details of validation study design.

Keynotes

High-level talks on what human factors means for device safety, regulatory credibility and product strategy — aimed at leadership, conference audiences and cross-functional teams.

Panels & moderated discussions

Contributing practitioner perspective on regulatory change, use-related risk, validation practice and the real cost of use error.

Workshops & in-house sessions

Hands-on sessions for design, quality and regulatory teams: use-related risk analysis, study design, and how to read FDA and IEC 62366-1 expectations.

Guest lectures

University and industry programmes on usability engineering, risk management and the day-to-day decisions that decide whether a submission holds up.

Topics I cover

  • FDA human factors guidance and submission expectations
  • IEC 62366-1 usability engineering in practice
  • ISO 14971 risk management and use-related risk
  • Summative usability validation and root cause analysis
  • Combination products and drug-device interfaces
  • Building an internal human factors capability

Who invites me

  • Conference organisers looking for a practitioner perspective on human factors.
  • Medical device and combination product companies running internal education days.
  • Design, quality and regulatory teams who need a shared language around usability.
  • Universities and training programmes covering medical device development, risk management or regulatory affairs.

How to invite me

Send the event, audience and the topic you have in mind, plus the date and format. I will reply with whether I am the right fit and what I would suggest. Larger programmes and ongoing advisory work usually run through Human Factors Hub (HFhub) (opens in a new tab).
