Overview
I started my journey at Cardiff in January 2020 as a Teaching Associate. My research area is Human-Robot Interaction / Human-Computer Interaction where I am particularly interested in using Social Robots to help Older Adults in their home settings who are suffering from oral medication non-adherence problems with the help of Social Robots. Currently, I am assisting in teaching the modules e.g., Human-Computer Interaction, Web Applications, Python Programming, Emerging Technologies, Computational Thinking and Computational Robotics.

Research
I am a part-time PhD student at Cardiff University. My research area is Human-Robot Interaction / Human-Computer Interaction where I am particularly interested in using Social Robots to help Older Adults in their home settings who are suffering from oral medication non-adherence problems with the help of Social Robots. Currently, I am collecting data that can help me find the reasons for poor medication adherence and the ways to overcome the problem. My research has wider horizons where I am also exploring the potential of social robots to help older adults with medication management in the Global South.
