      Yes, actually as I work on the edge of engineering and medicine I often find that I have to make difficult decisions. Sometimes a great engineering solution isn’t suitable for the medical environment and others a great medical solution just isn’t possible from an engineering perspective. A lot of my research is about balancing the needs and priorities of two quite different areas. The people I work with in both areas are very knowledgeable about their topic, but it’s up to me to bring together the key points and create something that everyone is happy with.
