Personal Statement
Marisa Sargent completed her MSc in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Strathclyde in 2017, before continuing her academic career within the area of rehabilitation engineering. Her main area of interest is prosthetics with a particular focus on lower-limb amputees and soft tissue health. As part of a multi-disciplinary research group, she is currently working towards the evaluation of the limb's response to loading by combining anatomical, physiological, and biomechanical know-how and techniques on various organisational levels, from cells over tissues through to the entire limb.
Besides pursuing her own research, Mrs Sargent is also involved in teaching, tutoring and assessing classes on Prosthetics within the BSc(Hons) Prosthetics & Orthotic and the MSc in Biomedical Engineering course as well as co-supervising student projects in Biomedical Engineering.
