With a strong background in mechanical engineering including CAD modelling, I focus on creating innovative solutions that improve patient mobility and healthcare outcomes.\u00a0 I conduct research on biomechanics and heat transfer and collaborate on projects involving medical devices design and technology, combining engineering expertise with medical applications. Moreover, I teach courses like Introduction to Clinical Engineering, Computer Aided Design and Drafting, and Biomedical Devices Manufacturing Processes and eHealth and mHealth, which helps me to integrate engineering research with real-world healthcare solutions-empowering students through innovation and advocacy in biomedical technologies. I am dedicated to advancing the field of biomedical engineering through both teaching and research, contributing significantly to the development of new devices and methodologies in healthcare.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><ol><li><strong> Positions, Scientific Appointments, and Honours<\/strong><\/li><\/ol><ul><li>Member, Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria, COREN<\/li><li>Biomedical Engineering Department representative, APWEN University of Lagos<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><ol><li><strong> Selected Most Recent Publications \/Contributions to Knowledge<\/strong><\/li><li>Nwaneri, S.C., Sojobi, J.W., Oyelade, A.O., Ezenwa, B.N., Balogun, O.J., Uregbulam , U.C., (2020). \u2018A Low Cost IOT Based Neonatal Incubator for Resource Poor Settings\u2019, The West Indian Journal of Engineering, 43(1), pp 11-20, ISSN 0511-5728<\/li><li>Nwaneri, S.
