There will be tea/coffee available from 10.00 am and the formal agenda for the workshop will run from 10.30am to 3.00pm. You are welcome to stay for another hour until 4pm for additional networking over tea and coffee.

Confirmed speakers include:
Trevor Cox, Salford University, who is an acoustics specialist. He will be talking about his recent work relating to hearing aids, and the challenges of tackling assistive technology compared to more mainstream consumer products.

Aleksandra Vuckovic, Glasgow University, who is a specialist in brain-computer interface for spinal injury. She will be discussing the research challenges relating to the development of Brain-Computer Interface systems and their role as a channel for communication for patients who have spinal cord injury or other CNS impairments.

Daniel Hajas, UCL / GDI Hub is an AT user, an experienced researcher, technologist and an innovator who has led a start-up as well as working on other projects in the field of communication technologies. He has a unique perspective that we hope will provide some very valuable insights on AT innovation.

Youngjun Cho, UCL Interaction Centre (UCLIC), who specialises in AI and physiological computing. We hope that his talk will stimulate delegates to think about how could this technology be used for AT.
