Fluid Flow: Lymphedema and Soft Robotics

Lymphedema is a debilitating, incurable condition which causes excessive swelling in the limbs, and disproportionately affects cancer patients.

She also talks to us about her experience of being a British Asian woman and how she stumbled on (as you do) becoming an engineer.
