About

Heather Jameson, PhD, is a Senior Engineer at Cambridge Healthcare Innovations, working on the development of novel dry powder inhaler technology.

Prior to CHI, Dr Jameson worked for Springboard, where she developed drug delivery devices for clients as a technical consultant, including injectables and inhalation devices.

She completed her PhD in Fluid Mechanics at the Whittle Laboratory (Cambridge UK), where her research focused on the downstream vorticity effects of leakage flows in the Low-Pressure Turbines of large civil aircraft jet-engines.

Dr Jameson has published several thought-leadership articles, discussing trends in the fields of drug-delivery and respiratory medicine. She is interested in applying fundamental fluid mechanics understanding to tackle the current challenges of inconsistent performance and poor usability of inhalation devices, to develop improved outcomes for patients.
