About
If you have a project that is built on actually caring about changing the world for the better, I'm here for it. If you have research to do that needs a bit more interdisciplinary thinking to flesh it out, give me a call. If you need a first principles reconsideration of your workflow in bioinformatics or biotech development, let's hear about it! If you want to make the existing status quo of pharmaceuticals with Eroom's Law a thing of the past, let's make change happen. I'm not your PhD-wielding scientist with a hundred prestige peer reviewed publications, it's true. But I honestly think I can be more useful than they can, in many cases. It depends what your focus is, but if I seem to resonate with you a bit, let's talk.

Professor Dr Joanna Wakefield-Scurr

Founder and Head of the world leading Research Group in Breast Health, Professor of Biomechancis
Education

University of Southampton

PhD, Biomechanics / August, 1999

Southampton
About
Joanna Wakefield-Scurr, known as [thebraprofessor.com](http://www.thebraprofessor.com/), is a Professor of Biomechanics and the Founder of the Research Group in Breast Health at the University of Portsmouth ([port.ac.uk/breastresearch](https://www.port.ac.uk/research/research-groups-and-centres/research-group-in-breast-health)).  The Research Group is internationally renowned for research on breast and bra science. The Group has been conducting fundamental and applied research into breasts and bras since 2005 when it developed and published the first procedure to establish dynamic breast movement in three dimensions. During this time, the breast biomechanics of thousands of women have been assessed in a variety of conditions, contributing to a unique database of the forces acting through the breast tissue and the support requirements of the breast. Joanna and her team are well known within the commercial sector, with research projects informing clinical practice and breast support design around the world. More recently, Joanna and her team have worked with elite athlete groups, such as the Lionesses and England netball in the lead up to major championships, improving athlete breast and bra knowledge, reducing breast pain and providing performance benefits.
