Barry Broderick Email & Phone Number

In 2004, I worked in the applications department of Analog Devices, Limerick on ARM7 and ARM9 based microcontrollers. In 2006, I began research in the area of Deep Vein Thrombosis prevention using neuromuscular electrical stimulation under the supervision of Prof. Gearóid Ó Laighin from the Bioelectronics Research Cluster, NUI Galway.In 2010, I completed my PhD Thesis which was titled "The application of NeuroMuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) for Muscle Pump Activation Following Orthopaedic Surgery". My external examiner was Professor Jane Burridge from the University of Southampton.In 2010, I joined the Enhanced Complete Ambient Assisted Living Experiment (eCAALYX) as a research assistant, funded by the European Commission. I researched the measurement of energy expenditure using accelerometry and developed a web server for data-mining biological signals.In 2011, I began working as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow on an Enterprise Ireland Commercialisation Funded project entitled "An integrated system for the management and prevention of venous pooling using telemedicine techniques". I was involved in the design of a new medically certified neuromuscular electrical stimulator for managing venous diseases. In 2011, I was appointed adjunct lecturer in electronic engineering at NUI Galway. This role involved course design, teaching embedded systems and C programming. In 2013, I worked on a second Enterprise Ireland Commercialisation Funded project entitled "A new non-invasive platform for monitoring venous pressure". My role was lead firmware developer. In 2014, I co-founded VASGARD Medical with my colleagues. VASGARD Medical is a start-up company whose goal is to product medical devices that monitor, manage and treat chronic diseases. My primary areas of interest are low-level software design (embedded systems, microcontroller firmware), electronic engineering, software engineering, product design, clinical research and scientific publication.

Listed skills include C, Biomedical Engineering, Matlab, Medical Devices, and 29 others.
